Such strings look like some uninitialized memory. Note also the
"cccccccc"'s on the stack, which are probably the same: uninitialized
variables.

The ERROR_INVALID_NAME is the error code set by the CreateFileW choking
on the \ffcc\ffcc... file name. It is written to an error log:
"c:\\windows\\profiles\\rmay\\Desktop\\CxDebugLog.txt"
In other words, most of this log is the program reacting on the
CreateFile error. Perhaps including the crash.

No, explorer means here just the Shell Explorer ==> Desktop.

Not from this log. Since I have installed the program, can you tell me
how to reproduce this error?
