Explorer.exe does not start with error 142

Explorer.exe opens in safe mode but not in normal mode. When I force it to start using the task (from the Task Manager) I get the error "the application could not start correctly (0xc0000142). Click OK to close the application. "

What is the cause of an error in 142?

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the reply.

    Hello

    It's a Windows startup option that uses the most recent system settings that worked correctly. Whenever you turn your computer off and Windows shuts properly, important system settings are saved in the registry. If a problem occurs, you can restart your computer using these parameters. For example, if a new driver for your video card is at the origin of the problems, or an incorrect registry setting is preventing Windows from starting correctly, you can restart your computer by using the last good known Configuration.

    Perform the last known good configuration of the advanced startup options and check if the computer works fine.

    Using the last good known Configuration

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

    To enable the Task Manager, you can perform the following steps:

Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

    Hello

    This error comes if the operating system or any boot device is not at the start of the network, where the system tries to boot from the network or Boot Rom. seems the BIOS setting is lost. To solve the problem. Enter the BIOS by pressing F10 or F1 and reach the start (on the top with the right arrow key) tab. In the Startup tab, there should be an option related to the priority of the device, select first boot as drive boot HARD settigs, and then save by pressing F10, select Yes for confirmation.

    Now a PC will reboot and hope that the windows starts.

    Good luck

  • Explorer.exe does not start at startup, and it does not display beyond the logon screen?

    I have a friends Compac laptop and he managed to stop loading explorer.exe when starting after logon is complete. I can't for the life of me remember what I have to do to restore this process in the startup routine so that his office will be in charge. He has an extraordinary number of startups, but he managed to remove this (essential) program, especially in lists of useless junk that is responsible.

    It's a compact with an Intel processor running Vista and of course it doesn't have the ERD. There is a recovery on the hard drive partition and if I knew how to use it, maybe this would a repair option, but I'm not clear on how to use either because there is no literature or what he had with the computer. By way of explanation, he is a foster child and had been tossed around a lot, so it's not too surprise that it doesn't have any of these materials.

    Go to this site and download the tool in a removable device like flash memory:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    And then start your PC and press the F8 key repeatedly and start in safe mode and then run the tool of flash and complete analysis of the system memory.

  • Explorer.exe does not work correctly.

    Hello everyone.

    My name is George Sebros and I have a Toshiba Satellite A300.
    The reason why I post this new topic, it is that I need a little help from someone who knows something about my above problem:
    One day, about 2 months ago... I turn on my Satellite A300.
    When he connected, not only none of my icons appeared but also the start menu does not...
    The only thing that appeared in a screen totally BLACK, has been my folder "Documents and Settings" which opened automatically.
    There was no way I could find neither the start menu (I mean the taskbar), or my icons...
    So, whenever I close the Documents and Settings folder that had appeared, the only thing I could see was a black screen...
    It was a kind of shock to me and I couldn't believe my eyes...

    After a few days, I tried the well-known combination "Ctrl + Alt + Delete" to see what was working and what was not.
    Then I pressed the 'FILE', then 'NEW TASK' and finally, I typed the word 'explorer' in there.
    That's all! Suddenly, all turn to normal like the day before the problem started. I was happy with it, I could use my Satellite A300 again!
    However, it is an indirect way to do my work PC!
    This means that I'm still fain to use this indirect way to make the icons and the taskbar appears.
    This means that the 'explorer.exe' does not work?
    Many programs registry I use notify me on some HKY... files that contain DATA NON. I have to let you know that the explorer.exe is located in the (empty) folders.
    It indicates that transplant programs that I use, point out the problem I have?
    Can someone help me?

    I don't want to use the safe option of FORMATTING (also known as the FORMAT).
    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    Seems that your Vista is confused upward
    You can try to clean the registry and operating system in order to avoid the new installation of the OS.
    Please use the CCLeaner.

    I use this tool as well for free and it cleans the registry and other files at the time.
    It really helps!

    But if the BONE still does not work properly then you should try a new installation
    Of course, this procedure is radically because the HARD disk should be formatted, but on the other hand, you will get a clean and functional BONE

  • TPSMain.exe does not start on Satellite U400 - 14 p PSU44E running Win XP

    Hello

    I installed Windows XP Pro SP3 on my U400 PSU44E - 14 p.
    I found all the drivers on the official website of Toshiba (thank you) but one in the origin of the problems: TPSMain.exe does not start when I start the computer.

    Once I type my password and login, I hear a typical Windows error sound, but no message is displayed. I noticed that when you try to start the Toshiba Power Saver utility from the Control Panel, I got an error message telling me that I have enough privileges to run this utility...

    I am the administrator!

    If you guys encountered the same problem and got a hint of trouble, feel free to post here. THX.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite U400 and I installed Win XP too.
    I have a user account administrator and Toshiba Power Saver works properly!
    No problem don't like on your system!

    However, in the Toshiba Power Saver Settings (installation options), you can find the option called limited allows the user to change the settings and allow different actions for each profile.

    Check that both are enabled!

    If this doesn't help then reinstalling again this tool.
