RunDLL error message: "Werconcpl.dll is not a valid Win32 application" keeps reappearing

Hello

I have a Windows 8 operating system and about 2 weeks, I've loaded my computer and an error titled, "RunDLL" appears indicating:

"There was a problem starting.

C:\Windows\system32\WerConCpl.dll

C:\Windows\system32\WerConCpl.dll is not a valid Win32 application. »

This error message is always popping up to date.

More information:

-Another error will appear again once every 30 seconds or so, no matter if I press OK to close. That said, if I left my computer alone for long periods, fifty, maybe even a hundred of these messages would pile on my desk.

-Many sources I've found seem to point to the idea that the cause of this is a process, probably malware, is set to run this WerConCpl.dll file at startup.  I have not all antivirus programs before that happened. But shortly after that, I installed Malwarebytes and I performed complete tests on Windows Defender and Malwarebytes. Initially, there are some questions that Malwarebytes had found and quarantined, but nothing on Windows Defender. I also tried to clean with a program of free registry: CCleaner. None of them were able to resolve the problem.

-I then went to my task manager to start Services. I disabled some third-party services that I use, but it is not necessary to start. Other than that, I have not found all third-party programs that are strange or unusual. The rest were associated with my internet (wide com) and bluetooth devices, or Microsoft and Intel.

-J' tried the solution that others used by running the command line as administrator and in typing "sfc/scannow". However, this does not work, and this error in the following line: "could not Windows Resource Protection start the repair service".

-I can't do a system restore because I had already done the restore points, which was a bad idea on my part. However, system restore services have problems with the shadow copy of Volume and not more time to work in any case.

* At the same time where this problem occurred, when looking for the solution to this problem, I found that a number of other things had stopped working on this laptop. I will not list all of them because it's a fairly large list, but this include services such as the Windows Installer Service, Windows Update services, and Windows store. I could do separate posts for all these but I feel like the root of these problems is related to this key error message.

* If this can help, at his request, I could type in a list of all service issues and error messages associated with them. In general, they can be irrelevant to the topic of this post.

Thanks for reading this,

Hi Sam,

First of all, I want to thank you for providing the detailed information about this.

In this scenario, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it works for you.

Method 1:

Start safe mode and check if the same problem persists. If the issue is not still in Mode without failure, then place the computer in a clean boot state and check which program third party/app is causing this problem.

Step 1: Safe boot mode.

See the following article from Microsoft Help to start safe mode.

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/Windows-startup-settings-safe-mode

Step 2: put the computer in a clean boot state in order to determine what third party/PPP program is causing this problem.

How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7 or Windows 8 / 8.1:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135 
Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, see the "How to reset the computer to start as usual after a clean boot troubleshooting" section in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

Method 2:

Create a new user account and check if it helps. This is to check if the problem is caused due to any user profile related issues or not.

See the following article from Microsoft Help to create a new user account.

    The same error for the other above mentioned service.

    I need to get these two services fixed and operational, as the wireless is "VITAL" to my workstation.

    Thank you-
    Kyle

    Edit
    --------
    Please note that I have no system restore turned on the lack of disk space.

    Hi Kyle Hulton,

    This problem may occur if the path to the service executable file contains spaces.

    Important: Serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. 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:

    How to back up and restore the registry
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/322756

    Follow the steps below:

    1. click on start and then click Run.

    2. in the Open box, type regedit and then click OK.

    3. Locate and then click the following registry entry, where is the name of the service:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\.

    For example, if the service is named MyService, locate the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MyService key.

    1. in the right pane, double-click ImagePath.

    2. in data in the value data box, add quotation marks around the full path of the executable file for the service.

    For example, if the path of the MyService service is C:\Program Files\MyProgram\MyService.exe, change the entry in the data area of value for the MyService service as follows

    "C:\Program Files\MyProgram\MyService.exe"

    3. click on OK and then quit the registry editor.

    Hope this helps!

  • "FileFormatConverters.exe is not a valid Win32 application".

    I'm on a computer running Windows XP Professional and that you want to open an Excel 2007 using Excel 2003 file and I said I need to download and run a program of conversion of Microsoft.  When I try to run the program I get the following message: "FileFormatConverters.exe is not a valid Win32 application".  I have all the updates that are required for Windows XP and Office on my computer and don't know what to do next.  I also tried to run the program by saving the first file and running right from the download process.  Any advice would be appreciated.

    I solved the problem.  I downloaded the program using Firefox rather than Internet Explorer 8 and had no problem installing fileformatconverters.exe

    I don't know why IE8 has caused me problems.

    It worked for me, too.  What does say to Microsoft when you use a competing product to download a hotfix from Microsoft on a set of Microsoft software?
