    Anyone have a solution for this problem where Vstudio launches dexplore.exe and then VStudio is completely locked up while dexplore displays the annoying help update in progress. I've changed all the options I can find to prevent dexplore from searching outside of my computer to no avail. Only thing that works is to kill process for devenv.exe (Vstudio)   and then kill process (dexplore). Trying to kill dexplore itself wont work because it continually relaunches.

      "dexplore.exe is a process relating to Microsoft Visual Studio and gives access to in-built help and MSDN libraries. "This program is a non-essential system process, and is installed for ease of use.\r" Source Courtesy: http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/dexplore/[^]
