Current problems with explorer.exe

I suffer with the current problems with explorer.exe in the last two weeks or more.

Main symptoms:

Taskbar becomes unresponsive, and the currently open windows explore unresponsive.

They do not recover.  I have to kill the process in Task Manager, and then run explorer.exe task manager.  No error message is always displayed.

This happens several times a day.

Other symptoms

Unable to create a Restore Point, because of the error when trying to get the Protection of the system:

There was an unexpected error in the property page:
System Restore has encountered an error. Please try to run the system restore again. (0 x 81000203)
Close the property page and try again.

Look in the event viewer I see many errors, which are for the most part a DistributedCOM

I followed the instructions I found online suggesting glancing component for COM Applications Services + and attempts to access these results in the following error message:

Catalog error
An error occurred while processing the last operation.
Error code 8004E00F - COM + was unable to talk to him about Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator
The event log may contain additional troubleshooting information.

Other info:
I am running:

  • Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit SP1
  • AVG Free
  • Malwarebytes premium

The last thing I installed was AVG PC Tune Up.

Action taken:
Have done the following (not in that order!), no positive findings:

  1. Have disabled all extensions of MS shell not using Extensions of Shell Manager.  This made no difference, even if the question seems not occur less often.  Or maybe not :-)
  2. MWB scan: found a threat yesterday that was deleted (ConduitTB.Gen), but the explorer.exe problem persists.
  3. A ran a chkdsk, that says that Windows has made corrections to the file system.  Don't know what that meant.  The log file does not mention specific errors.
  4. Ran sfc Scannow, who found no errors - at least he said he repaired 0 components.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think that your problems are largely self-inflicted.  AVG antivirus was once a good product, its reputation has declined in recent years.  I have no personal knowledge of AVG Free a / v one way or another.

MalwareBytes AntiMalware should find most of the villains, but just in case, run ESET free Online Virus Scanner-->

AVG PC Tune Up, however, is much more likely to have caused problems.  I didn't author the following, but I agree with his sentiments:

TIP: If you ever think that your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, boosted, point, healed, twisted, fixed, magnified, "swept" or optimized (it isn't), read http://chris.pirillo.com/are-registry-cleaners-safe-to-use/ or http://www.edbott.com/weblog/2005/04/why-i-don ' t-use - Registry cleaners / and then draw your own conclusions.  Related-online http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2563254

And if you think that because those related articles are old several years that they are outdated, here's a version 2015 the same advice: https://blog.malwarebytes.org/social-engineering/2015/06/digital-snake-oil/

The key idea is:

Potential performance improvements resulting from the use of these programs are at best tiny and imperceptible.

At worst, they could damage your computer so bad to the point of requiring a reinstall of the operating system.

Descendant of my forum,

Frankly, however, if you have a DVD of Windows 7 for the edition of Windows 7, you have installed, you might seriously consider to do a "repair installation". How to do a repair installation to repair Windows 7  Unfortunately, the links in this article of ISO of Windows 7 files are no longer valid.

For reasons not revealed, Microsoft does Windows 7 ISO files easily available.  If you have an installation of the retail of Windows 7 (IE, not OEM) but have lost/lost/damaged the installation DVD, you may be able to download the ISO required here, but from what I've seen, this system is a little laminated--> https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7

  • Leak memory with Explorer.exe in the videos folder.

    Leak memory with Explorer.exe in the folder of videos with thumbnails enabled. Using the resource monitor, I can see that explorer.exe is playback of video files, while the memory gradually increases until it is 99%. No such problem with memory leak when I put the provision 'list' (i.e. without thumbnails). Disabling thumbnails also eliminates the problem of memory leak, but this isn't what I want.  Main videos folder is. MKV files, with the codec video within the container MKV h.264 high profile. I tried to dissociate all media files with Media Player Classic Home Cinema (which I use to watch mkv videos).

    More important, this problem seems only appeared after I installed SP1.

    Win7 x 64 Ultimate SP1, C2D E8500 8 GB of RAM, Western Digital 2 to Green Caviar.

    More info: I realized that this only happens with the video files that don't have any generated tile. It's like Windows Explorer is reading through the entire video file to generate a thumbnail, but even after awhile that yet, it does not generate a thumbnail.

    How to fix? Help! Thank you!

    1) update your nVidia/software drivers to the latest version for your model video card + operating system.

    (2) check that the equipment is not defective.

  • Anyone who has a problem with net.exe?

    Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 with all patches

    Open a command window and tried to run net.exe:
    C:\>NET
    This version of C:\Windows\system32\net.exe is not compatible with the version o
    f Windows that you use. Check your computer's system information to see information indicating if
    r you need a x 86 (32 bit) or x 64 (64-bit) version of the program, then told the
    CT the software publisher.

    Checked net.exe and found that it was not true.  Did a scan using Microsoft Security Essentials and it says that it ASNA 2 files and found no threat.

    The original net.exe was renamed appearently net1.exe.

    The owner of the file is trustedinstaller.  I can't move, rename or delete it even when running as administrator.  The system says that I need the permission of the Trusted Installer.

    Any idea of what could have caused this and how get rid of?

    Hello, saberman

    The fact that the Details tab of the property sheet for your net.exe is not filled with the correct information is undoubtedly a problem. This is why suggested Yann Support engineer runs the System File Checker ("SFC"), which is designed to find and replace corrupt or missing system files from backups in your store of components (windows side by side or WinSXS folder; note that the KB929833 article I just linked ("System File Checker") has yet to be re-written to reflect the fact that) Since the advent of Windows Resource Protection in Windows Vista is no longer a dllcache folder in System32 and file system backups are now located @ C:\Windows\winsxs\Backup).  Running SFC should have found the problem with net.exe & repaired, without needing to resort to a system restore, which can sometimes cause problems as indicated by the error message you posted, i.e. that net.exe "is invalid for your system.  I suggest to read the article from KB929333 on SFC and see if enforcement of that tool is not correct the problem. If not, a good starting point for troubleshooting to solve the problem is the sfcdetail.txt newspaper, which shows the results of each operation of checking files and each transaction attempted repair. instructions for how extract/transform/load this journal of his 'home' in the service area global log (log CBS.log) in a usable format appear under the heading "How to view the details of the System File Checker process" of KB929333, and the instructions on how to repair files that are not SFC are included in the article "How replace manually a file system damaged by a known file correct copy" section (the two sections are available by clicking on the circle '+' sign next to "for more information").  It is to note that it is not uncommon to have to run SFC repeatedly to deal with corruption - 3 times is the recommended minimum, and I personally saw him require more... the error dialog box that you see leads me to believe there is more harm than simply a lack of functionality net.exe and CFS can be just the thing to get things straightened.

    That said, it is also true that there is often more than one place that a protected system file is stored, other than the C:\Windows\winsxs\Backup on a Windows 7 computer. Typical areas of other instances of the net.exe include C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-net-command-line-tool_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_none_5208a7a3d3caa54c records, while net1.exe can usually be discovered (on a 64 - bit with an AMD processor machine) and two C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-net1-command-line-tool_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_none_86b24994b5e6bfbf at C:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-net1-command-line-tool_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_none_e2d0e5186e4430f5 (note that the part "31bf3856ad364e35" of these folder names may vary). There may be other places in the store of components according to these things the way that system restore several times has been executed, whether an OEM computer (i.e., a pre-loaded with Windows by an Original Equipment Manufacturer) who has already found "Factory Spec", which updates Windows, service packs and other fixes/patches have been applied, and other factors.  The trick is to know what file is correct to use to replace a version corrupted in C:\Windows\System32 - which is not always easy to determine - and by "taking possession" file corrupted in question, so it may be deleted or replaced.

    The windows component store peut usually be used as the source of a file replacement for one that SFC cannot fix by using the information in C:\Windows\winsxs\Backup, but a user must make sure that they know what they are doing to avoid the disaster (this is why Microsoft has included the "automatic" option to perform a "repair installation" to correct the corruption of the system)- and if the user has access to another , work computer running the same version of Windows, or for the installation media (if no Service Pack or other update of the kernel has been applied), or "slipstream" self-created media (if Windows 7 Service Pack 1 has been applied) designed specifically for the operating system in use, extraction verified copies of the record of those required are usually an "easier" approach  Detailed instructions on the use of all these forms of installation with SFC media are in the Wiki author try * 3of 6 December 2013 post to the thread of community "System File Checker and access files blocked, while detailed instructions on how to create a"slipstreamed"media are in his post from August 25, 2012 to pg 3 of the thread"guide to recovery of Windows 7 Home Premium account user word of. past lost, unable to connect, connection problem"(it is also useful to have a look at this whole thread, which has very useful information about different Windows 7 recovery options, and that includes links to downloadable PDFs (portable document files) on each of the options many.).  BTW, these pdf files is hosted on the cloud OneDrive service, which is where we usually place downloaded files (for example the zipped copy of your corrupt net.exe file you mention) and make them accessible to third parties. to learn more on how to do that I recommend community animator Gerry C J Cornellexcellent tutorial 'Forums Community Microsoft"on its site Computer Tips of Gerry .

    As you noted, net.exe (and net1.exe - which, as I have, reminder has been around in all NTFS OS since @ least NT4.0 however hardly documented; official documentation only I ever)

    seen mention that this is the Windows Embedded article Utility Net.exe : thus, as well as many others

    protected system files) is 'held', in terms of security of the file/folder permissions, by service "Trusted Installer".  The implementation of the Protection of resources of Windows, Vista, limit property of this service-protected system files in large part to protect themselves against malicious or accidental deletions.  However, a user with administrative privileges ('high') can always take ownership over any file and then manipulate it at will.  TechNet Library 'ownership of a file or a folder' article provides advice on how to do it, but without expertise in the creation of a file batch, macro, visual basic program, Power Shell command or similar to handle this action based on a large scale, the procedure described is essentially limited to a one-at-a-time approach.  In my opinion, a better technique is to add the ability to take ownership of a file or folder from the context menu (right click "") of the operating system. many people have found the information and automated "registry hacks" in the Seven Forums tutorial "Windows 7: take ownership shortcut" very useful in this regard.  Even with this capability, users can occasionally run through a file that stubbornly refuses to behave even when the property has been reassigned to the said user. in this case, the stand-alone freeware program ("Portable Executable", requiring no installation runs) UnLocker can be valuable.

    I'm hopeful that SFC be enough to take care of this problem for you, but if not, I would also consider

    check the integrity of the hard disk / partition with Check Disk.  If none of these solves the problem, a repair installation may be in order.  Useful information on this procedure can be found in article KB2255099, "How to perform an upgrade in Place on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2" and the tutorial of the Forum seven "How to do a repair of trouble Windows 7 installation.  Good luck!

  • Problem with av.exe; process will be not open.

    I want to open by saying that I know it was stupid of me to try to solve this problem without consulting others.

    In any case, my computer is infected with av.exe.  I tried to run the two Avast! Antivirus and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, but he diverted their windows, so I couldn't run them.  At this point, I realized that I could put the av.exe task manager end process and did so; However, he would not reopen whenever I opened a new process.  In the Task Manager, I clicked av.exe, went to properties, then security.  The program has settings irremovable Allow "Full control", "Edit", "Read", "Write", and "reading & run", under all the three accounts listed: SYSTEM owner (user account) and administrator.  I tried to reduce to nil the threat by adding permissions denied to all these (it was, and by far the most stupid thing, I think).

    In a sense, it worked; AV.exe is unable to start.  However, the computer tries always run every time I try a new process and since av.exe will not start, nor will any other process, including Windows Explorer and system restore.  'Run' still works and I can use it to access the command prompt, but other that that, I am limited to what I've already opened: Mozilla Firefox, Windows Live Messenger and the Task Manager.

    I'm quite frustrated, and I wouldn't rather fiddle around with anything without notice.  Ideas, another that does not try to bump things?

  • Problem with wuauclt.exe

    Hello

    I'm having a very aggravating problem.  About every 12 seconds a black box showing wuauclt.exe is running is displayed.  It appears that for a fraction of a second, just enough to have problems with typing.

    I use Windows Vista (Service Pack 1) and this has happened since the installation of Windows (that is, since this morning). It is not malware or a virus (I scanned for both).  In addition, I can't upgrade to service pack 2. When you click on the file "Windows Update", I am greeted by an "empty window".  In other words, the window appears, but has no text.

    Please tell me what to do so that my computer function normally.

    Thank you.

    Hello Celired,

    You can also try the following to see if it helps.
    Step 1: empty user and system 'temp' folders.
     
    1. empty "%systemdrive%\temp"folder. "
     
    2. empty "%systemdrive%\%windir%\temp"folder. "
     
    3. empty "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temp'.»»

    Step 2: Utility Windows Install Cleanup
    Click here to download and install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility. However, if you encounter a problem with Windows Installer, you may not be able to run this utility.

    Find the entry for the program, RTUadmin you try to install it and remove it.  You can use the utility to remove installation information for programs that were installed by using Windows Installer. Remember that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility does not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall on.

    Step 3: check if there waiting for installation/s in the registry.
     
     
    Warning: You should only edit these registry entries if you really know what you're doing. Back up your hard drive first.
    NOTE: Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.

    Go to the Start button and in the search box, type Regedit.

    a. the empty registry key "InProgress".
     
    Highlight, then check the following registry key:

    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress

    and clean all the entries that you find.
     
    b. empty/rename "PendingFileRenameOperations" registry key:
     
    Highlight, then check the following registry key:

    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\PendingFileRenameOperations

    and clean all the entries that you find.
     
    Then try again and see if you can download your software, RTUadmin.

  • Problems with several .exe slow down my computer - see in the Task Manager.

    Hi everyone - I had posted in other sections of the forum such as: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-files/why-does-dllhostexe-com-surrogate-consumes-memory/bd7e42bb-802d-4eb9-95b2-2bb6b566996d?page=1&tm=1416087694827

    but still have no answer to my problem - I just wanted to reference I've tried many "patches" suggested, without success.

    On the question... in addition to causing me problems of dllhost.exe, I now see a list of other authors in my task which are guilty of collaboration Manager.  The interesting thing is that I put the finger on a particular instance of dllhost.exe (COM Surrogate) who is about 8 k in size - whenever I'm deleting this one (which can sometimes be difficult to find when there are multiple instances of similar size) all other instances of dllhost.exe problem simultaneously remove themselves as well.  This is only a temporary solution as the problem will resume as soon as 10 minutes later, gobble up all my CPU and memory.

    Anyway - as I said, I noticed several other spots displayed - the interesting thing is that these tasks ALSO disappear when I delete the task of dllhost.exe k 8 initiators.

    Here is the list of the other guys who gobble up my system resources:

    dllhst3g.exe

    dpnsvr.exe

    dplaysvr.exe

    dvdupgrd.exe

    Rundll32.exe

    wiaacmgr.exe

    cmmon32.exe

    Has anyone else noticed these programs causing problems?  I would like to know how to solve this problem, but since the last message in the previous topic, it still has not been resolved by Microsoft...

    I know this post is a few months old, but I stumbled across it all fighting the same problem on a laptop of family members.  McAfee or Malwarebytes was able to track it down in my experience either.

    The task Mgr showed the same process taking a ton of memory and CPU.

    To resolve this issue, it turns that Symantec posted a tool that you can leverage.  Here is the link: http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2014-111020-0511-99

    I would leverage the link Symantec before using the links of Evan (above), these links are to sites with strong ads and an EXE from a developer private.

    I hope this helps.

  • Problem with rapc.exe

    Hello peoples,

    I have a problem with the compilation, which is probably quite common, unfortunately I can not do a search for the solution because there is no error message.

    I'm trying to convert a .jar file a .cod with rapc.exe and nothing seems to happen. I have also no output when executing rapc.exe without parameters. I have both the .jad and the .jar in the same folder that I'm under rapc.exe since. I installed the JDK 6 Update 21 and JDK 6.0 BlackBerry and I'm on Windows 7 x 64. I tried to add the path to javac.exe on my WAY without change.

    The command I use is:

    CAP import = "c:\Program Files (x 86) \Research in Motion\Blackberry JDE 6.0\lib\net_rim_api.jar" codename = test - midlet = test.jad test.jar jad

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Figured it out. Used instead of 6.0.0 6.0 in the command.

  • Current problems with windows xp and Internet Explorer e-mail. You want advice

    Problem started when in Internet explorer, I could not send emails. Program would close downm advised by the technical support of Microsoft Windows than windows xp or explore 8 had bad files and needed to do a clean install. Cannot locate the disc for windows xp will have to buy a.  Should I buy Windows XP or Windows 7? What are the main differences > is Windows 7 contains IE and other software as well?

    The tech shared my office and tried to uninstall IE 7 and 8 butcould not completely uninstall. It also reset my settings to the origianl settings, still no luck. The messaging service is hotmail and my wife also has a msn.com address, and none of us can email unless I have disable all add-ons. How can I solve this problem? How can I find out who the module blocked sending emails?

    Well, again, how take you your contact with the tech support person?  In other words, how do you know he worked for Microsoft?

    What default values have been reset?

    What happens when you try to use Hotmail or MSN?

    * It was an attempt to uninstall IE 8 which has failed.  How it failed? Do you remember any error message?

    * Apparently, the attempt to uninstall IE 8 was successful enough to reveal IE 7.  Then, there was an attempt to uninstall IE 7 that has failed. How it failed? Do you remember any error message?

    * What version of IE is now active?

    Assuming that the answer to the previous question is IE 8, you can selectively disable the modules by going to tools > manage add-ons.  If IE 8 running in mode no. Add on solves the problem, I suggest from IE 8 in normal mode and systematically disabling the modules until you find the culprit.

    Alternatively, you can start a new thread in the forum Internet Explorer .  Include your version of Windows XP, including the service pack and the version of Internet Explorer you are using.  You should also explain exactly what is happening when you try to send an email.  If an error message appears, he quotes completely, without paraphrasing.  I suggest that you use a more descriptive title, such as "cannot use Hotmail with IE 8.  In the body, do not forget to explainwhy "do not use Hotmail."

    Yet an another path is to ask for help for Hotmail here: http://windowslivehelp.com/product.aspx?productid=1
