Windows 8.1 Preview Explorer.exe crashes

After upgrading to Windows 8.1 Preview explorer.exe might crash with an error which looks similar to this:

Faulting application name: explorer.exe, version: 6.3.9431.0, time stamp: 0x51bce434
Faulting module name: dlnashext.dll, version: 12.0.9431.0, time stamp: 0x51bcfb3d

You can disable the DLNA Shell Extension to prevent this from happening. Copy and past the following information into a text file and save it as a .reg file (.e.g “import.reg”).

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Blocked]
"{289AF617-1CC3-42A6-926C-E6A863F0E3BA}"=""

Restart Explorer.exe or your machine afterwards.
