To help you analyze the PDExplo.exe process on your computer, the following programs have proven to be helpful: ASecurity Task Manager displays all running Windows tasks, including embedded hidden processes, such as keyboard and browser monitoring or Autostart entries. This allows you to repair the operating system without losing data. Even for serious problems, rather than reinstalling Windows, you are better off repairing of your installation or, for Windows 8 and later versions, executing the 7DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command.

I've used PowerDesk from version 6 to version 9, in Windows XP to Vista to 7, 8, 8.1, and 10.
