Host process for windows has stopped working

Today, I got an error with no activity on the computer. "host process for windows services stopped working. Immediately after this message when I clicked on the Panel of the window was empty. Also, my printer stopped working. I checked the day windows journal and noticed that the last 3 weeks of auto updates had failed for some reason any. I have tried almost everything on the site of MIcrosoft to fix this problem without success. I even tried to do manual downloads of Vista SP2 but this faills and.

Any advice?

    Hello

    IE was running is very important to the solution to the issue - check below.

    -----------------------------------

    BEX errors often are caused by toolbars such as Google, TrendMicro and others. You use one
    3rd toolbars in IE? Cause and solution is the same for Vista and Windows 7.

    What antivirus/antispyware/security products do you have on the machine? Be one you have NEVER
    on this machine, including those you have uninstalled (they leave remnants behind which emits causes).

    Start - all programs - Accessores - system tools - IE with no Addons - does this work better?

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Advanced - tab click on restore advanced settings, and then click RESET - APPLY / OK

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Security tab - click on Reset all areas - APPLY / OK

    Close and restart IE or IE with no addons

    Start - all programs - Accessores - system tools - IE with no Addons - does this work better?

    IE - tools - manage Addons (for sure disable SSV2 if she's here, it is no longer necessary but Java still
    installs and it causes problems - you never update Java to go back in and turn it off again). Look for other
    possible problems.

    Windows Defender - tools - software explore - look for problems with programs that do not look right.
    Allowed are usually OK and "unauthorized" are not always bad. If in doubt about a program, ask
    topic here.

    Could be that a BHO - SpyBHOremover - free - program of autonomous, needs no installation, download, unzip
    and run. Also not all the BHO is bad, that some managed bars of tools and features that you added.
    http://securityxploded.com/bhoremover.php

    Startup programs
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/79612-startup-programs-enable-disable.html

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you never think malware updated, then
    run as a scanner.
    http://www.Malwarebytes.org/

    I hope this helps.

  • "Audio Windows has stopped working" and "host process for windows services stopped working.

    To access Safe Mode:
    (a) restart your computer and start pressing F8 on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured to start to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when the Boot Menu appears.
    (b) select an option when the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, and press ENTER.
    (c) when the boot menu appears again, and the words "Safe Mode" appear in blue at the bottom, select the installation that you want to start, and then press ENTER.

    Of in safe mode, type msconfig in the start in the start menu search box and press return. Then on the Startup tab, uncheck the box any reference to the verisign/authentec software. Then, go to the services tab, sort the columns by manufacturer, then uncheck all references to Verisign. Then click ok and restart in normal mode.

    Hi PA bear

    Thank you for your interest for my problem. Another long session of trial and error on this issue. I tried different solutions offer after having read a few other answers users forum, tried to find PowerShell in the M/S Download Center but failed in the present. At the end of the day, I gave up and disconnected.

    I started my PC this morning and found that M/S Windows 7 has set its self, so Windows Update now as it should. What was wrong with Windows for 24 hours? I got a popup saying there had been a failure, and a report was compiled and sent to M/S.

    I tried to reload the McAfee security software but failed, which resulted in an email exchange with a member of the McAfee technical support team that took control of my keyboard and mouse. I noticed that it resets the default values for the original settings and remove the history of Solution Explorer. After these adjustments, I was able to reload the McAfee security software and fortunately my PC is protected and that it works correctly.

    What was the problem with M/S Windows 7 on this occasion is a mystery to me, I thought for a moment that I had picked up a virus. I don't think that this report will be of value to other users?

    concerning
