• "Plugin - container.exe has stopped working" error during installation of Firefox 36.0 via SCCM if Firefox is open during installation.

  When installing Firefox 36.0 via SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager), if the previously installed version of Firefox is open during the new installation, an error, "Plugin - container.exe has stopped working. A problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly. Please close the program. This problem occurs only if Firefox is open during the installation, otherwise the installation is successful. Note: I have included a taskkill to 'firefox.exe' in my installation script to stop Firefox runs.

  There are new logic in Firefox 36 monitor to stop crashes while the Mozilla Crash Reporter can capture data. This could have the effect of killing her task, I'm not sure. Maybe you have to kill plugin - container.exe before firefox.exe? I'm not familiar with SCCM and it might have a more graceful way to close an application.

• I get the message "firefox has stopped working" after closing browser

  Hello.

  My problem is that when I close the FireFox browser, I get the message "FireFox has stopped working". It's pretty boring. I have read some other posts here that describes a similar problem and we tried some of the suggestions in them including:

  A clean install, a reset of the browser, running in safe mode, uncheck hardware acceleration, disabling Extensions and plugins one at a time, uninstall my antivirus (avast), backward to 23.01 and audit version run in compatibility mode that someone claims to be helped. None of this has been effective.

  It seems that after a reboot of the computer, the browser will be ok for 2-4 closures and then it will start by the message at each end. In addition, after uninstalling avast was good for 6 closures. Roll back also gave me approximately 6 free message closures. But then, the messages and does not stop.

  Is there anything else I can try? Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

  
  

• "itunes has stopped working" Win 10

  Hi all

  iTunes worked very well for me in Win10, until the last update. (12.3.3.17) now, whenever I run iTunes, I get the message "iTunes has stopped working" and the program stops. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the program as detailed here...

  Troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates

  .. .but the program still "stops working."

  My system Win10 House, 64-bit, all of the updates. iTunes is 64 bits, too.

  Any suggestion is appreciated.

  I had a lot of problem with my iTunes crashing / freezing - up after I've upgraded to the latest version also.

  In my case, the symptoms were different, but after trying many possible solutions, which had no effect at all, I discovered the following post useful here:

  Empty/corrupted library iTunes after upgrade/crash

  While the symptoms are different, because you have already tried to reinstall the software, perhaps the problem may be related to your library, iTunes, or (as in my case), seems to be a problem caused by the Apple's music, which only manifested itself during the access artists in iTunes that I have previously set to 'follow' Apple music!

  After that I've disabled showing music Apple (from the tab general in iTunes Properties) as suggested in this article, all of a sudden my iTunes stopped freezing / crashing.

  If your iTunes library is potentially corrupted, the following Apple article should be very useful:

  A day ago when I turned on the laptop, I got a notice to the effect:

  Windows Wireless Lan 802.11 Extensibility infrastructure has stopped working.

  -> Are looking for a solution later (recommended) the next time that you start the system
  -> Closed

  Those who were only two choices. I think I clicked on the first "search for a solution later.
  When I turned on laptop today, I got the same message.

  Anyone know what could be wrong with this new laptop?
  I use the wireless to enter IE7 and type your message.

  My husband and I are elderly and not too familiar with computers or computer language so if anyone has an answer, please make it simple enough for us to understand.

  We hope that this new laptop is not already broken.
  We cannot afford to buy another computer or have it repaired.

  #2-we tried to send questions by e-mail to MS, but they asked the PID. We looked in Control Panel and system (I think) and typed in the PID of there (OEM number), but it would not recognize MS.

  Can someone please help?

  Hello Bob

  I agree with Kody and I think also there is a software problem or the WIFI network is not properly enabled. I use the European model of laptop, but I don't think that there is some difference of laptop models to the United States.

  If you want to use the WLAN, it must be enabled correctly. At first make sure that the WLAN switch is placed in position ON. The WLAN led should be on. After doing this using FN + F8 key combination to activate the wireless network card. When you press the FN key and keep down. Maps flash in high must be indicated. Always keep the button FN, but press F8 and select Wi - Fi ON.

  So now the wireless network card must be activated, and you should also be able to connect to your WLAN.
  If the problem persists, you can try to roll back the OS to an earlier time (when the network WIFI works well). To do this, you must start System Restore tool. Choose different restore point and to the next day when you think about the WIFI worked well.

  Sorry, but for now I have a better idea because I don't want to confuse you more than necessary.

  Have a good day and I hope that WIFI works well again.

• the Windows Firewall has stopped working

  I tried the system restore to just before it stopped working

  Hi geoffrey,.

  System restore would have been my first suggestion, so that was an excellent choice on your part.  I would try it again maybe a few days earlier just to be safe, he did not start before you really notice or before, it became clear, as it is certainly the simplest answer, but frankly, I doubt that it will be more effective (but who knows - he can come back works perfectly and we are both happy, it was considered).  He also suggested that you know a little about computers, so I can provide instructions that contain everything you need but I will not go into nauseous detail unless you get stuck on a step and then you should post any problem you encounter and I will provide more help.  If you should post, don't forget to answer as many questions and include both the results of the proceedings or reports or copies or screenshots of screen that you can at the same time, so we can work on what to do then if none of this made the turn.

  How do you know if what she has stopped working?  Do you have an error message (if so, what was the full and exact message Word for Word, including all codes)?  You have more than one firewall installed on your system (like that which is part of Norton Internet Security, Comodo, or something else)?  What security programs do you use and that you have installed (all names and versions)?  What version of Windows you are using (for example, 32-bit Vista Business SP2 or other - please be precise otherwise)?  When this occurred and did you a software or a hardware changes (additions, deletions, upgrades or anything like that) since two weeks before the problem (if so, precisely what has been done in as much detail as possible)?

  Do you get this Center security or firewall Windows itself?  If you are using XP, post back with answers given that there is a limit to the options how can I cover without knowing the basic information.  If you use Vista or W7, go to Security Center or action center and check to see if there is a problem with the notification of the firewall or it's on.  If it's not on, it shows the details or links containing information about the problem?  If Yes, go to these links and copy the information and post here, so we can look at.

  Then go into firewall Windows itself (on the left side of the screen) and confirm that there is a problem.  If she too says it is disabled, click on change settings.  Make sure the firewall is turned on - if not turn it on, click on apply and then click OK and confirm that it starts and begins to work.  If it does not start, it provides an error message (If Yes, what is completely and exactly Word for Word with all codes)?  Click Advanced, and verify that all network connections are checked - make if all are not and click OK, then again try to turn on the firewall.

  If this does not work, go to start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Services and then highlight the Windows Firewall and click Open.  Click dependencies and go to each of them and make sure they are started and automatic.  Otherwise change it to automatic and start them.  If it is impossible to do, check their dependencies and do the same until you reach the end of the chain of dependence.  Now return to Windows Firewall and make sure that it is set to automatic and started.  Then restart.  When the system returns, return to the service and confirm that the Windows Firewall is started and automatic.

  Now, go into Windows Firewall and again try to launch and see if it lights.  Go to the center of security or Action and check that the firewall is enabled and works.  If so, the problem can be solved.  Just to be sure, restart and check the firewall to ensure that it is on and working.  If so, who should be the one.  But we do not know why it stopped, and if the problem may come back, then we must redouble efforts to find the cause or confirm that there is no problem.  Moreover, if the above did not work and Windows Firewall is still off, here's what you should do in any case.

  Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer and look for error messages regarding the Windows Firewall (there will be errors).  Look in system first and then in Applications.  When you find the error or errors, click on it for details, copy these details and display them in your next reply.  Well, they can help us identify the source of the problem and there a fix for it.

  We will check your system and hard disk for corruption files and try to fix it:

  Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  , Type sfc/scannow go and let it run.  It will scan and try to the difficulty of some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.

  While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  They tried to set itself to run at the next reboot.   Answer Yes and restart to run the program.  It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.

  Then, we will confirm this is not caused by a malware any.

  Update and run a full scan with no matter what security software you use, and remove or quarantine everything you find.

  First, try the following programs if you do not, because they can help. I recommend you download, install, update and run full scans with Malwarebytes:http://www.malwarebytes.org/ and SuperAntiSpyware:http://superantispyware.com/ and then run a full scan of Microsoft Security:http://www.microsoft.com/security/default.aspx. This may or may not remove the infections, but will probably not correct the damage caused by them. Even if they or your current AV software seem to work or indicate that you are not infected, you should not completely trust in them and must continue with the recommendations that follow (so it's up to you if you want to try them first, or just ignore all this and get help from an expert you really need as described below).

  Correctly and completely remove these infections can be complex and often require manual removal procedures (which may or may not be entirely effective either). Even if they work, I suggest what follows in any case, so that we can start it (you can ignore the methods above if you want it really is the way forward, but it won't hurt to them for trying).

  Please follow these recommendations of JimR1 - MVP compliments:

  ===========================================

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded: run DrirveView - set the VIEW to hide
  Microsoft drivers - update those without drain in their names. (Also update BIOS and)

  drivers chipset on the site of the constructor/the system motherboard.)

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

  ===========================================

  Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
  programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

  Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
  programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method
  first.

• Windows host process Rundll32 has stopped working ONLY at startup on the desktop.

  When I start my Dell Inspiron 531 after that sign in the screen will Dim twice for a few seconds then the Windows host process Rundll32 has stopped working window appears. If you close another small window exactly the same error message mentioned above tells you that Windows will look for a solution but NEVER done. I use AOL version 9.0, I can sign and the big surf for dial-up access. I tried to download free Kaspersky on their site and an error message said it was incomplete or corrupted. I have Windows Security Essentials, Stopzilla, CCleaner, Glary Utilities, you run sfc/scannow, it cleaned up a few files and he tells me that he has no integrity problem after 4 scans. The big short PC but what the _ is causing this Rundll32 error and why is there NO information specific on how to solve this problem? Also Internet Explorer cascades tiles and diverts the PC sometimes force a quick stop, it's really weird to see, very rare but happens. Systerac Fix of Windows crashes after starting an analysis on current user files, really strange, as if something is trying to stop him on purpose. I wish that Microsoft would really worry about the Rundll32 error of work ceased and tell us customers how to fix this shit it is very boring I'll tell you. I want that my host process Rundll32 to work as it did for the past 2 years with no error message at startup. He never gives me these messages while I use the Internet. There are many pages of misinformation out there, can some Microsoft Engineer please give me that a definitive answer in particular to the Windows host process Rundll32 has ceased to function the error at startup ONLY and tell me how to fix Rundll32 file or the process, it would be greatly appreciated? Thank you. Woman

  Hello

  Be careful of having too many programs antivirus/security on the computer running much less
  at the same time. Have a single load at the same time as even the remains of one can cause a lot
  problems.

• Weird black/window box after commissioning; "Explorer has stopped working". Error messages; Do not click on some things in the start menu; several McAfee icons in the lower sidebar...

  Where oh where can I start?  When I start the computer, my office is always in the background, but there is a pop up looking for black box thing.  There are no long enough for me to read what it says.  Something about system/Windows32 (not full title), then past to something else, even once too fast to read, disappears.  Then a window that says;

  • Online: 223
  • Char: 2
  • Error: 1% is not not valid Win32 SENSITIVITY
  • Code: 0
  • URL: file:///C:/Program%20files/PeoplePC/ISP3700/HTA/station.brt

  There is an option to run a 'this page with a script' or something to that effect.  If I choose Yes or no is not serious.

  Under this window is another

  "Runtime error!"

  Program:C:\ProgramFilesCyberLink\PowerDVDDXL\PDVPDXSrv.exe

  Application has requested the execution in an unusual way.

  On my sidebar on the right low in McAfee Ms red with white background icons, many of them until I sweep (no click) with the cursor.  They will disappear after the scanning, but then return.

  When I click on Explorer or the window will Flash quickly on and outside, or should I get the message "Windows Explorer has stopped working".

  I can get on explore if I disable all add-ons.  But it won't let me check yahoo IND. e-mail messages.

  When I try to go to things in the start menu that look like we can help him, I'll either get the error messages or off quick flashes of a window.  When I went into Control Panel, nothing happens when I click on the icons.

  When I went into the System Configuration. then click on services there are things that say that they are arrested.

  In its responses, please explain things as you explain to a 60 year old grandmother.

  Hello Halima S,.

  Thank you for your response.  I was checking things until I found your answer.  Do not be alerted via hotmail.  Somewhere in my files McAfee "View Log" I found that I was 'ping '.  What is crazy?  In the files for seven times in a row from 09:30-09:34 "SystemGuards have allowed a moment change on your computer."  Should I try to mess with this before that I have use the above tips or try your advice first?

  Ping, means that your mcafee dat files are up-to-date and also it cannot be updated no more. so try to update your antivrius manually by downlading latest mcafee dat files and also try runing mcafee!
