This C:\Windows\System32\RpcRtRemote.dll file is from Microsoft?

Members of the community of dear Microsoft,

I am slot as Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit Service Pack 3.  6.1.7601 OS version (Win 7 RTM).

This file does: C:\Windows\System32\RpcRtRemote.dll, come from Microsoft?

The file 'RpcRtRemote.dll' is continually popping up as a "bad Image" to start Windows.  After checking the updates from Microsoft, I ran Microsoft Security Essentials, and nothing has been reported, quarantined or deleted.  I manually check all the different types of updates available, twice a day (morning and evening), by using the Windows Update Application.  If NO update is available, I download and install it immediately.

Now, Windows is not yet put into operation, and I get the famous 'blue screen '.  The information reads, in part: "technical information: * STOP 0x0000007B (0x80786B50, 0xC00000034, 0x00000000 0x00000000).  I can't sent the "blue screen" or "System Recovery Options" Windows.

With my laptop older, I have studied many download sites "*.dll" allowing users to download replacement files "*.dll", but I do not trust all of them... at all.  The RpcRtRemote.dll file is listed in some of these sites, but I will not access them for reasons that I have with the ability to download malicious software.  Should I delete this file? or it's a critical Windows system file?

Can you, or someone, please confirm this for me? or can someone help me please what to do in response to the above mentioned "0x0000007B" error code?

I ran two of ' Microsoft Windows approved commercial scanner, check disk (chkdsk), and System File Check (sfc).  Both commercial scanners do not detect or return what whether negative... at least, that I can tell.

You the time and attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Daniel.

Hi Daniel,.

Welcome to the Microsoft community. I see that you are getting the blue screen on the Windows 7 computer. I'll help you with this problem.

You have only one SP 1 for Windows 7 and for Win XP SP 3. Please confirm which operating system is installed?

The latest version of windows is Windows 8 and Windows 7 RTM is not in use anymore. Veuileez clarify.

I suggest you to refer to this article and check if that helps.

Resolution in Windows 7 stop errors (blue screen): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Resolving-stop-blue-screen-errors-in-Windows-7

Important: System Restore will return all system files not as documents, email, music, etc., to a previous state. These files of types are completely affected by the restoration of the system. If it was your intention with this tool to recover a deleted file to non-system, try using a file instead of system restore recovery program.

Warning check disk.

Important: While performing the check disk on the hard disk, if bad sectors are, check the drive will try to repair this sector. All the data available in this area may be lost.

I hope this helps.

    yeremis,
    You don't need to download the help file.  So just follow the steps described in this article, that it will guide you through performing a clean boot.  The boot will start Windows without other programs startup.  This should stop any program that tries to use swwagui.dll.  Then you can go back and turn on startup one items at a time to determine which type of program is causing the problem.

    If the error persists while in a clean boot state then you should try a restore of the system forward when the problem started. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

  • duplicates wuauclt.exe & c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll (need both?)

    Hello
    I am running xp pro sp3 with MSE (v. 1.77.1038.0). I had CATrust AV until a few weeks ago. I'm on a domain network. We have not required WU to run all the time.

    I have issues with wuauclt.exe slow down my computer. All of a sudden, I hear the beginning of the computer running through the process and everything slows down. (5 minutes to open an email of 5 KB)

    I * think * my problem is that there are 2 versions of wuauclt.exe & c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll on my computer. They appear as wuauclt.exe and wuauclt1.exe.  wuauclt1.exe and c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll files are version 5.8.0.2469.

    Running the MSE analysis does not turn to the top of any spyware. I tried just to remove the old version, but they appear immediately as if the registry grows this version instead.

    After reviewing the record, I see that everything related to Microsoft.Update.AutoUpdate has two entrances:
    That is to say
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft.update.AutoUpdate
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft.update.AutoUpdate.1

    Could this be the thing slow down my machine? If this is not the case, what would it be? If so how can I get rid of the duplicates offending (and shocking!)?
    Thank you
    Ian

    I can assure you that Windows uses only the wuauclt.exe file now and it is quite normal to find a copy of wuauclt1.exe in %windows%\System32 <=this> .

    It is quite normal to find wuauclt.exe in the Task Manager. Processes tab shortly after starting your computer and so he can be executed for 10 to 20 minutes later (especially if Microsoft Update [1] is your source of default update).

    That being said, the current automatic updates of running in the background has not such a detrimental effect on performance (e.g., 5 minutes to open an email 5 KB) when it is executed, unless the computer is low on resources (low power).

    See if the boot minimum technical troubleshooting help you nail that other background process could contribute to the slowdown.

  • SP1 crashes with c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll

    Op - sys Vista Home pre.
    After D-load of SP1 (MS web site... updated wasn't) started the installation. Took the time to run EXTREME. I haven't watched the process, but noted that, in a reboot, the computer (laptop HP, AMD tru. 64, 2 GB ram 160 GB HDD - 85 GB free) seemed to be hung while activating or ongoing enforcement of the estarted and watched all the intermittent processes... until... ALL collapsed when the c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll file has been reached. the screen showed this:

    !! 0xC 0000022! 810/67181 (c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll)

    Whenever during the same interruption of startup. Then I thought that I could boot into safe mode, a copy of the file from another computer (laptop) just rename the old file (or which may have been part of the update), then copy in the same directory, reboot and everything would be good in the lands of the greyknight.  But..................................

    I couldn't get to win on the desktop. Solution Explorer. Then I rebooted and used F8 to get a menu and choose Mode without failure. Given that I had a copy of the file on a USB stick (1 GB) c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll I have pluged in there during post and watched the process. This time I got a message the waqs there is no system disk insert and press a key. So I have... .pressed the any key.

    Interesting the SP1 update resumes at step 3 of 3. I have not watched the process of steps 1 and 2 (it was like watching paint dry). When you have finished part 3 I was taken in the section connection and do zip! There was the office. I did what I should have done before and copied all the files which means nothing to me and the rest of the world on my 250 GB USB key and again my 500 GB ext.

    Now as I mentioned above, I tried to simply rename the old file, then copy the other file in the same directory, restart and all would be well in the land of the greyknight.  But..................................

    Alas, it was not, the file on the computer (orig. wuaueng) was protected I don't have permission to anything but smile and look at him.

    What has caused this problem is the file for bad update process? How can I get good copy?
    I'm now going to try to restart my laptop hang on and I'll let you know what happens...

    As to manually replace the .dll file, you can find info here:

    Some Windows Vista functions may not work, or Windows Vista may stop responding

    How'ever, the problem you are experiencing may be related to a bad update to SP1. That would happen if you had other programs / services running that could have interfered with the update process (example is Antivirus software), or your system has been damaged before installing SP1.

  • application or the C:\windows\system32\odbcint.dll dll is not a valid windows image

    Hi everyone, my fathers laptop crashed yesterday and since then he was able to start and the following message appears

    application or the C:\windows\system32\odbcint.dll dll is not a valid windows image

    something appears then it restarts. I did some occasional checking of this problem, as believe that he may be able to replace the file with its installation in recovery mode disc, although neither nor I did before can someone provide some support on what to do, ideally if we can get into windows and get the docs off the laptop computer he is happy the new facility because I think that it maybe Basic virus/malware issue.

    Thank you for your time and help in advance

    If the c:\windows\system32\odbcint.dll file is missing, you see a message like this:

    User Interface failure
    The logon User Interface DLL msgina.dll failed to load.
    Contact your system administrator to replace the DLL or restore the original DLL.

    There is a button to click to restart, which when clicked, takes a while to reboot the system.

    If the c:\windows\system32\odbcint.dll file is corrupted, you will see a message like this:

    Winlogon.exe - bad Image
    The application or DLL C:\WINDOWS\system32\odbcint.dll is not a valid Windows image.  Please check this against your installation diskette.

    By clicking OK twice, you will see the message above about the failure of User Interface.

    There will be events in the case where the viewing Application log that look like this:

    Event type: error
    Event source: ODBC

    Event ID: 0
    Description:
    Cannot find the description for event ID (0) in Source (ODBC). The local computer may not have the information necessary registry or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the option/auxsource = flag to retrieve this description; For more information, see Help and Support. The following information is part of the event: unable to load the resource DLL odbcint.dll.

    You should figure out what happened to get into this situation and respond to the following questions, then decide which is the best plan:

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The afflicted system has a CD/DVD drive work?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    Fill in the blank: my system worked well until: _.

    Did the problem to the top after show installed new software and if so, what software?

    You have recently installed any type of remote control software?

    Now to fix it depends on how you are fixed to the boot media, since you'll have to start on something.

    We know that XP likes to keep the backup copies of critical system files in this folder:

    c:\Windows\System32\dllcache

    Knowing this, start in Recovery Console XP using your genuine XP bootable installation CD or if you have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, you can make one (no XP media required).  If you don't know what type of bootable media, you, do a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console and do not forget.

    If Yes, you want and are not in possession of a genuine XP bootable installation CD or a CD from Recovery Console XP bootable, the instructions to create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console can / will be provided before any questioning begins.

    You can replace the missing file or suspect the XP Recovery Console by entering the following command:

    Copy c:\windows\system32\dllcache\odbcint.dll c:\windows\system32

    Answered in the affirmative if invited to replace the existing file and then you should see a message that 1 file (s) has been copied.

    If you get some type of a file not found message, the file is easily replaced using other methods.

    Remove the CD and type "exit" at the Recovery Console prompt to restart the system.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

    The program is only a limited trial and not paid.
    Hope you can help.
    Thank you.
    Steve

    I can't comment on your pc max speed problem, but you can solve your problem by reinstalling the NVIDIA drivers.

    Here are my instructions standard copy/paste of the JKB1687 article for your reading pleasure:

    If you are using an NVIDIA video system (whether on the motherboard or a supplement), the installation of the NVIDIA software added one or more startup items to launch the NVIDIA Control Panel.  They are set to launch and run whenever your system boots.

    If it worked before and you have made some system updates lately, something is messed up with it or your system has an affliction of malware.

    To see what commands look like, click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msconfig

    Click OK to start the System Configuration utility, and then click the Startup tab to display the startup items.  You may need to drag the autour columns to see things better and like msconfig isn't a Boot Manager (this is a troubleshooting tool) you can't "make of the display is wider.

    Items with check box will be launched automatically once XP restarts.  With the checkbox elements are still "installed" but not set to start automatically every time you start XP.

    The NVIDIA partners start lines see you in msconfig Startup tab will look something like this:

    RunDLL32.exe C:\windows\system32\nvcpl.dll, NvStartup
    RunDLL32.exe C:\windows\system32\nvmctray.dll, NvTaskbarInit

    If the C:\windows\system32\nvmctray.dll or C:\windows\system32\nvcpl.dll files are missing somehow corrupted, inconsistent, out of date or wrong versions (maybe), when NVIDIA applications trying to launch, messages can appear like this (or even complain):

    Rundll32.exe - bad Image
    The application of the DLL c:\windows\system32\nvmctray.dll is not a valid Windows image.   Please check this against your installation diskette.

    RUNDLL
    Error loading c:\windows\system32\nvmctray.dll
    %1 is not a valid Win32 application

    If you don't think you use the NVIDIA Control Panel, you could simply disable the items is msconfig to prevent it to launch when you start your computer.  If you use Control Panel NVIDIA, deactivation of the elements and will leave your system without (perhaps not a good thing) NVIDIA Control Panel.

    You could just go ahead and disable the startup items in msconfig (deactivation does not uninstall anything), restart your system and understand the functioning of your system.  If things get worse, you can rerun msconfig and reactivate the NVIDIA elements, but I hope that you will not want to fix things the right way.

    Disabling items in msconfig is not really fix things and you will not have a NVIDIA Control Panel, but some people don't know what the NVIDIA Control Panel looks so can be good.  You will have stopped the message from popping up every time you start.

    If you want to use the features of NVIDIA Control Panel, you must repair or reinstall your NVIDIA software.

    The best way to reinstall the NVIDIA software is to visit NVIDIA support web page and let your system and recommend the best software for your system or that you get the right version of the software on their web page and download the latest package of video driver for your system software and install it yourself.

    It is recommended to run the scan NVIDIA with Internet Explorer.

    Here is the link to the support page NVIDIA for the scan:

    http://www.nvidia.com/download/Prescan.aspx?lang=en-us

    Read the instructions, and then click the GRAPHICS DRIVERS button to start the scan.

    Let online to take a look at your video system scanner them and see what he suggests for drivers and consider their analysis if they offer a new pilot.

    Download and install the recommended driver and restart your system.

    If following their indications do not straighten things, then follow these steps:

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..
     
    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click OK, and when the system information summary appears, click Edit, select all, copy and then paste the
    information here.

    For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information.

    This will minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork.

    There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and everything seems to be
    information private for you, just delete pasted information.

    When you have the time, I could do that too:

    Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:

  • missing or damaged c:\windows\system32\ptpusd.dll

    operating windows xp professional on a dell dimension e520 with 32-bit processor.  am trying to download pictures from a Canon powershot a570 is, and I get the error message is "the c:\windows\system32\ptpusd.dll file on [unknown] is necessary.  type the path where the file is located, and then click ok. "I've uninstalled all Canon software and followed the manufacturer's instructions to install it again.  the error continues to display.

    measures taken so far: I rebooted the computer SEVERAL times, cleaning directory of running applications, directions of command-line attempts without success (sfc/scannow...)  -everything I could think of before you purchase software.

    nothing has worked so far and I've invested several hours in the effort.

    I would deeply appreciate any assistance that could be provided.

    Hi mef92708,

    If you have several USB ports, then try another.

    This problem occurs if the camera uses the standard Microsoft Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) to transfer the photos to the computer. Windows Vista and Windows XP SP2 use the standard of WPD (Windows Mobile) devices instead of the standard WIA to import pictures and videos. The WPD standard supports many features and options of connectivity of the devices.

    To resolve this problem, set the device to use the PTP (Picture Transfer) protocol standard instead of the WIA standard. For more information about how to configure the camera to use the PTP standard, see the manual of the owner for the camera. Or, visit the website of the manufacturer of the camera.
