Data Execution Prevention is blocking programs

Similar Questions

• Data execution prevention closes ALL programs constantly, (it is NOT an IE8 problem-associated).

  I'm running Windows Vista 64 x.

  2 months ago DEP began to close programs, any program, all programs, at the start of about 3-4 programs will be immediately closed and it usually takes 2-5 tries to get another program to run.

  I've been a losing battle, trying to find the cause of this, I downloaded nearly every free anti-spyware/malware program out there. I have been looking online for other references to this same problem and I can't find anything. Windows Security Essentials and Privx are not the root of the problem.

  I've disabled all my toolbars, in a Word, help.

  Hello

  Did you change programs such as suggests? If it is those who are likely to be of much
  the question as too many antivirus/antispyware programs will cause strange problems. Even
  their remains can cause weird problems.

• Data Execution Prevention will not let me turn off for nothing

  Data Execution Prevention (DEP) blocked one of my games to open. I followed the steps to turn it off, but when I get to the window with the option "Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select", it is grayed out and won't let me select it. I am the administrator (my account is the only one on this computer), so I don't know why it doesn't let me do. I have looked everywhere and can not find someone else with the same problem. I have Vista Home Premium, 64-bit, if that helps at all.

  Hello

  First of all, I suggest you to see if a Data Execution Prevention of the game compatible version is available by visiting the website of the software publisher. If the Publisher has not released an updated, compatible version DEP for the program, you can turn off DEP for the program that was closed. You will be able to use the game, but it might be vulnerable to an attack that could spread to your other files and game.

  I would suggest trying the following steps and check if it helps.

  Step 1: Open the elevated command prompt, follow the steps to open the elevated command prompt.

  a. click the Start button.

  (b) in the Start Menu, click programs principally made, followed by accessories.

  (c) in the menu accessories, right-click on command line option.

  d. in the drop-down menu that appears, click on the "Run as Administrator" option.

  e. If you have the User Account Control (UAC) enabled, you will be asked for permission before the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

  Step 2: Try the following steps to activate the Data Execution Prevention, using commands.

  a. in the elevated command prompt, type bcdedit.exe/set {current} nx OptIn and press enter.
  NOTE: If for some reason that this command does not DEP after restarting the computer, then use the command bcdedit.exe/set {current} nx AlwaysOn rather.

  b. you should get a success return message.

  c. close the elevated command prompt.

  d. restart the computer to apply.

  Note: Once you are done with step 1 and step 2, try to add the data execution prevention program and check if it helps to open the game or not.

  Hope the information is useful.

  If I get a data execution prevention message, how can I find which program has been interrupted?

  Hi Robhofm,

  Usually the Data Execution Prevention (DEP) automatically monitors Windows programs and services. You can increase your protection by having DEP monitor all programs.

  For the program being stopped by DEP, you will receive an error message indicating the cause of the stop and the name of the program.

• Data - execution prevention program closed everything permanently!

  For about 3 months now DEP was the closure of all types of programs on my computer that I used for years. Adobe software, many games, my anti-virus, my software now PUPILLARY and registry cleaning software (used for college documents) & Microsoft Office. for about a month now, I not was able to download Windows updates... None of them. I tried since it began to correct the problem, tried all the suggestions on the pages of answers and help from microsoft without success. I finally got sick of the month last and disabled from command promt and it STILL stops! How is that possible? Windows Vista sucks maybe more? Is there something... Is there anything else I can do to prevent it all stop? I need these programs to do my homework. Thanks in advanse for the help :)

• Data Execution Prevention ended at Half Life 2 (hl2.exe)

  I bought half-life 2 and install it on my new Vista pc. So I finished the installation, and I open up half-life 2. It takes a strangely long time to load, and the second it seems to finish loading, it closes, saying that he had a problem and hl2.exe had to be closed. In my taskbar, a small message will appear, indicating that the prevention of execution of data is completed half-life 2, click here for more details. So I clicked on the little bubble, and he showed a lot of things on the data execution prevention. And so I tried to disable it to hl2.exe and hl2_launch.exe, and then I restarted my computer. Once rebooted, my computer, I opened hl2.exe again. Same thing has happened, data execution prevention blocked hl2.exe. (And I'm sitting at my desk thinking, "Hold it.") Didn't I just put hl2.exe and hl2_launch.exe as exceptions in the data execution prevention? ") So I googled until I found another way to help." Then I went in cmd, it ran as administrator and copied and pasted the code from a help page - bcdedit.exe/set {current} nx AlwaysOff

  and you press on enter. I restarted my computer again. When it restarted, I opened half-life 2 and whadd' are knows, I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. So what the hell is happening? Is it my computer? Or did Bill Gates? Help, please. It seems that I can't turn off DEP, and I can't add a program as an exception, even though my computer says I can. Oh yes, and I am the administrator, with all the privileges on my computer.

  Hello
   
  As you have already given an exception to this game and the problem persists, it must have some other programs interrupted during the launch of a game. Try to disable all non-Microsoft programs and then play the game to check its operation.
   
  1. follow step 1 to perform a clean boot to disable all non-Microsoft programs: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
  2. restart the computer and launch the game to check its operation.
  3. If the game works fine, then follow step 2 to step 6 to find out what is causing the problem: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
  4. follow step 7 to start the computer as usual.
   
  You can also check if the problem continues in a new user account.
