Installer of Modules of Windows has stopped working and was closed

Hello
I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite (running Vista Home Premium) that I bought about two months ago.  When he tries to run updates, he routinely gets through a few and then up pops the message "Windows Modules Installer has stopped working and was closed."  I have already reinstalled Windows Updates and Microsoft Updates, nothing helps.  Recently, she was immobilized on the KB958623 update, so I tried to install that separately, but the same message popped up and it did not work.
Help?
Thank you!

Greetings mollypopsicle,

I see that we have always had problems with this update.  This leaves me with the question about the possibility of fi computer update auto is damaged during download.

I would like to have you create a folder on your desktop.  Right-click on an empty spot on the desktop / new / file - name of the folder KB958623.

If you have a download manager, please use it to download the KB958623 update from this Web site

http://catalog.update.Microsoft.com/v7/site/search.aspx?q=958623%20

Make sure you use the version of Windows Vista that applies to your system.

Once the download is complete and before running the update

  1. Restart your system in safe mode with networking, as described in the above post from Brian.
  2. Once the system is booted in safe mode with network, run the update from the file that is downloaded on.
  3. If this does not properly complete, were there a pop-up Windows indicating that an error?  If so, what were these errors?
  4. Maybe it's that the error you receive is that this update does not apply to your system.  If so, this update can be hidden in your list of updates.

Here is a link on how to hide the update

http://windowshelp.Microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/5a319824-5cb5-493d-9151-9a97d0f565b61033.mspx#EZH

Select only the I'm getting offered an update from Windows that I don't want.

However, before you do, check which version of Windows Vista is ran - home edition, Premium, Ultimate, it is 32-bit or 64-bit edition.  Also, if there is an error of execution of this manual update mode safe mode with networking, include this information in the forum.

Thank you and continue to keep us informed of the State of this update.

Best regards

    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.

  • Windows Update, error: "Windows Modules Installer has stopped working and was closed".

    Whenever I run windows update, and try to install an update for Vista, I get the error message"

    "Windows Modules Installer has stopped working and was closed"

    . This has happened for quite awhile and I tried many suggestions on the web. If you do an internet search, you will see this seems to be a fairly common problem, but I can't find any official solution of Microsoft. I am afraid that I do not receive the latest updates and security patches so would like to help with this question.

    Thank you

    Hi guys

    I had installed up-to-date antivirus software and my problem seems to start after an update from Microsoft. Do a search on the web and you will see similar stories. I spent so much time trying to solve this I think it's better just to do a re-install. Certainly not the resolution I had hoped, but appreciate this type of questions are almost impossible to solve the problems through intermittent mail such messages.

    deafinhum,
    If you run the utility from the Vista DVD System File Checker, it will extract the files it needs to turn off the DVD to replace those damaged.  If this does not work, you will need to do a repair of your Vista installation.

    Here is an article to help you with the repair process.  Please let us know if you need more assistance.

  • Desktop Window Manager has stopped working and was closed

    One of our machines (HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC running Windows Vista x 64) will receive the error "Desktop Window Manager has stopped working and was closed" with lots of close error. He reappears (as well as all windows flasher to non-aero, then back to aero) in a few minutes, spends about 5 times per hour.

    I did some research on this and have already taken the following measures without a bit of luck:

    1 run the command chkdsk / SFC scan - nothing found via chkdsk, SFC found some issues fixed, and some, it did not set. Them that it solves not all related to Windows Sidebar, which I do not / does not start.

    2. put updated drivers for ATI Radeon 3200HD - this had a lot of new questions. Installing caused newer drivers ATI catalyst to no longer work with errors during installation and popup errors at startup. After trying several solutions workaround to try to get installed it, I ended up coming back to the driver that came with the laptop, that are properly installed and working without error. I am skeptical of update of this stable driver as a solution to the dwm.exe error.

    3. this problem just started yesterday, that occur with not a lot of changes. Other than updates of windows (I think that .NET framework and a few other updates installed), I replaced NOD32 antivirus with Bitdefender antivirus. The system was stable with bitdefender for about 2 weeks, so I'm not convinced that this program is causing the error.

    4. the event viewer shows the following:

    Failing application Dwm.exe, version 6.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e02696, failed module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6002.18881, time stamp 0x51da3d16, exception code 0 x 80000003, offset 0x00000000000461f0, process id 0 x 124 error, start the application time 0x01cea0365a457adc.

    Offset, process id and start on time all vary, but there are a lot of these application errors in the viewer all screaming Dwm.exe like the failing application.

    What should be my next course of action?

    You do not receive an error but a caveat. NTStatus results (the set of codes execption used by ntdll - the failed module) begin to 0 for no error, 4 for information (you should never see this), 8 for putting guard and C for error.

    It's your specific error.

    //
    MessageId: STATUS_BREAKPOINT
    //
    MessageText:

    //

    Problem is, you shouldn't have breakpoints. Breakpoints are set by debuggers and stop the execution of the program to the State of the program can be examined. There should be no breakpoints in a retail system. More breakpoints are inserted into memory during execution of the program in a debugger. They tend not to do in the actual file.

    So here are two assumptions, either you have no exit code, IE test code (driver?). Or you have a running program that behaves like a debugger (which is suspect).

    Each of the three towers of programs, services, and drivers in increasing amounts. So restrict the possible culprits.

  • Can't print Photosmart C5280. Error "object GPCore COM has stopped working and was closed".

    I have problems printing my Photosmart C5280 All-in-one on my desktop of Windows Vista 32-bit. I felt for a few years and have only recently met this issue. A few months ago, I set up a home network so I could print from my Toshiba laptop. The printer is connected to the computer via a USB cable and the laptop is connected via a Bigpond Modem/Router which is connected to the desktop via an ethernet cable. More recently, I have also configured for my son to be able to print from his HP laptop. Initially, we were able to print from any computer. The two paltops are running Windows 7 64 bit. However, in recent weeks, we noticed that we were no longer able to print from a laptop, and a few days ago, I was unable to print from the office. When I try to print from the office, the print job seems to go to the print queue, but is then removed from the queue. I then get an error message

    "GPCore COM object has stopped working and was closed".


    This applies to all applications even the test print. I just went through the steps on the HP site, including downloading and execution of printing HP troubleshooting and doctor Scan and uninstall then reinstall the printer. I'm a bit of a novice at the side Computer Hardware and wonder if there is anyone out there who has had a similar problem and found a solution. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Hello MikeF48,

    Sometimes to do a simple uninstallation / reinstallation is not do the trick, and we try to remove all the software from the computer completely. Most of the drivers available at HP have a scrubber utility that removes all traces of the software on the computer and allows you to reinstall the software fresh. We should start there and see if that gets us running.

    I recommend you to do all this on the Vista machine. Once we have a working computer we can then pass from there to other laptops.

    Here are the instructions to use the tool of the scrubber. There are two sets of instructions, one for if you have installed the drivers from the HP website or if you have installed the drivers from the CD that came with your printer. Follow the instructions for your installation accordingly.

    Of the Original installation CD:
    1. Insert the CD in the drive and then cancel Setup
    2. open my computer and click right then on the CD from the drive and select open
    3 open the Util folder
    4 open the CCC folder
    5. If you have an HP computer, run the L3uninstall.bat. If you have a computer not HP, run the L4uninstall.bat
    6. once the uninstall is complete, restart the computer
    7 run the Accessories\ System Tools Disk Cleanup
    8. download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player
    http://get.Adobe.com/flashplayer/
    9 download drivers and full software features
    Software & Driver Downloads - HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-One Printer - Vista
    10. run the download to reinstall the printer

    If the software has been downloaded and extracted to your system:
    1. type % temp % in the field of race
    2. Locate and open the folder starting with 7z (example: 7zS2356)
    3 open the Util folder
    4 open the CCC folder
    5. If you have an HP computer, run the L3uninstall.bat. If you have a computer not HP, run the L4uninstall.bat
    6. once the uninstall is complete, restart the computer
    7 run the Accessories\ System Tools Disk Cleanup
    8. download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player
    http://get.Adobe.com/flashplayer/
    9 download drivers and full software features
    Software & Driver Downloads - HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-One Printer - Vista
    10. run the download to reinstall the printer

    After having uninstalled the software and did a reinstall of fees. Let me know if the problem is still the Outlander.

  • manages scheduled tasks has stopped working and was closed

    And this morning the automatic update of Windows Defender definitions also could not install (so I would be dnld and installed).  Set to automatic update referred to 'unknown error' (8 and 57, I think).

    Update 7/22: I'm starting to suspect a problem of interactions between turn off Vista and [printer] HP Digital Imaging Monitor.  I tried to disable it via msconfig, a couple of days and have not seen the mistakes regularly ever since, but the jury is still pending for another week or two.   I'll report after awhile.

    It is too early to point a finger because we know that all of them have well worked normally in the past and they seem equally at risk of corruption.  For example, I have no these errors when you use the same software HP on my Win7 PC and I don't have these errors for a few months after that the reconstruction of my Vista laptop, so I'm suspecting some piece of software has become corrupted (something in Vista), or something the tracking software program, some windows or component or registry setting software execution to one who relies on the HP printer.

    Anyone know what this means?   Microsoft Windows 'R003. EXE has stopped working and was closed "it doesn't affect my computers operation at all.
