Hi,
There could be many options, but we need more information about the computer and the problem. Please post back with much more information.
It appears that you may have copied the error code number incorrectly, please check that and post the number again with your next post.

This error (explorer.exe-Application error) especially when you try to open control panel, means virus, download, malwarebytes free, iobit360 free, and microsoft essentials, it will be better if you can download combofix and run it. and only download it from this site.
