"The Windows Task Manager has stopped working" the INSTANT Task Manager opens... process of safe mode does nothing.

I am running windows 7 64 bit and have encountered a problem. Whenever I have open tasks, any way Manager (msconfig, cntrl shift escape, Ctrl alt del, etc.), task manager opens and white and displays "Windows Task Manager has stopped working". I am increasingly frustrated with the problem. I tried booting in safe mode AND clean boot, but the problem persists. On top of that, the system restore fails whenever I'm trying to do.

Could you please help me get running again the Task Manager?

Do you feel the behavior if you log on with a different user account?

Maybe, try to rename a HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\TaskManager to for example a HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\TaskManager.OLD in the registry. Then try to start the Task Manager again.

  • My menu has stopped working. I disabled add-ons, started in safe mode, disabled hardware acceleration and all the other suggestions but nothing helps.

    Everything worked fine until a few days ago. I tried all of the suggestions for similar problems, but the problem remains. I don't have the problem with Internet Explorer.

    I found the problem! It was my wireless mouse, who must be dying or something, although I remember a fall just before the problem started. In any case, after switching to my old mouse wired, everything is back to normal. I suggest that anyone else has the same problem first check their mouse.

  • Windows Control Panel has stopped working and cannot read the CD

    Original title: windows control panel has stopped working

    When I went to install my Rosetta Stone program it showed Windows has stopped working and then installed the program and when I put the cd in my computer saids windows control panel has stopped working and cannot read the cd

    Hello

    You say "Control Panel has stopped working" or "Windows Explorer has stopped working"?

    Follow the steps mentioned in the article below and check if that helps:

    Start the computer in a clean boot state

    Start your computer in a clean boot state, and check if your computer is able to read the CD. Start your computer in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

    See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

  • Windows Media Player closes whenever I open it with the message "Windows Media Player has stopped working"

    Hello

    I have a XC of Aspire Acer-605, i5 with Windows 8 (bought 4 weeks ago)

    When I open Windows Media Player 12, if I play music or not, in less than a minute, a box appears that says:

    "Windows Media Player has stopped working: a problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly." Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

    The only option then is to click on "close the program".

    When I try to listen to music on CyberLink Power Media Player 12. I have the pop box saying:

    "Play.exe stopped working: Please send us this report to help us solve the problem and improve this software."

    The option only two then are "CANCEL" or to type my email and the problem then click on 'send report '. I did the second and nothing heard back.

    XBOX media player works, but I don't want to use it.

    I already scanned with McFee virus and it found nothing. I recently remove a virus from my computer. The problems may have started after that.

    Can you help me to solve my problem?

    After days and days of the trial, an online chat with a technician Microsoft (which was useless) I finally found a suggestion that worked... I had to create a new user account with administrative privileges. Media worked perfectly in this new account! I then spent ages downloading the files from my old account before deleting completely. It took a long time and has been a real pain, but at least it works now :-). Good luck to all. I hope this works for you xx
