Windows Task Manager has stopped working
I have Windows 7
When I go to use the Task Manager it came with this message "Manager of Windows tasks has stopped working", he begins to look for a solution but can't find one.
Then the message pop up:
A problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
And windows has not found one yet.
Can anyone help please?
In addition to suggestions of Syed, to reset the Task Manager settings in the registry by renaming a HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\TaskManager e.g. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\TaskManager.old.
Or try to connect as a different userand see if the Task Manager is working.

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.

Desktop Window Manager has stopped working after loading of updates 12/10/10 MS

The failing application path: C:\Windows\system32\Dwm.exe
Path of the failing module: C:\Windows\system32\nvwgf2umx.dll
Report ID: e6dfd048-d6e2-11df-9660-00271383b7feThe operating system is Win 7 x 64. Video card is a Gigabyte GTS450OC1 with its latest driver running on an Intel DP55KG MB with 8 GB memory Corsair XMS3. The system was fully functional and stable immediately before the update. I don't know which of the 18 patches is in conflict with the nvwgf2umx.dll file. Device Manager reports no hardware problem with any component.
In my attempts to solve the problem, I run chkdsk f, sfc/scannow (which have reported no problem) and reloaded the video driver (without uninstall first). Nothing works so far. I even tried to defragment the master file with Diskeeper 2010 start time Table Defragger (based on another post, I've found), also without success.
What is the reference for this?
This may seem like the thing the more janky to post, but I got the same error several months:
Problem event name: APPCRASHApplication name: Dwm.exeApplication version: 6.1.7600.16385Application timestamp: 4a5bc541Fault Module name: nvwgf2umx.dllFault Module Version: 9.18.13.1422Timestamp of Module error: 51427a 68Exception code: c0000005Exception offset: 000000000013fe0bOS version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1Locale ID: 1033Additional information 1: bd9dMore information 2: bd9dfb84ef7bbf0c089fd3d5f079469bAdditional information 3: ec39Additional information 4: ec39233315f018bea3fd5d4de7e9458fAnd could not cancel the record/re-record the dll it error out on an entry point missing or whatever.So what for some reason any worked for me is to rename C:\Windows\System32\nvwgf2umx.dll to nvwgf2umx.dll.bak (all other copies of this file are in the folder DriverStore).After that, I ran from an administrator command promptnet stop uxsmsnet start uxsms
And miraculously all started working again. I'm running a GTX570 with latest drivers nvidia from Scripture.Note: You probably shouldn't be move/rename things in System32 unless you are confident and have your data backed up. It worked for me, but who knows you. -
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.

Adobe Download Manager has stopped working. This is the message I get
I still use google chrome with my Windows Vista PC. Usually plugin chrome automatically updates the latest version of adobe flash player. Sites, I will say that I have to update and head for the download of adobe. I deselect Mccaffee and then try to download. I have to Save it and then click on run, etc., but the installation stops with a message that "Adobe Download Manager has stopped working" and then another message "I want to report to Microsoft", etc..
I have
tried several times to install but I can't. I called Microsoft and they offered the Adobe phone number. (I always use my webrootsecure but I disabled it once to see if it would help the download/install new update of adobe Flash Player, but that did not work either) I don't have all the cover or subscription from Microsoft at the moment, btw.
(I even know the category in which post this question)
If Chrome Support/updates being arrested was not involved in your original question of Flash Player, that's what I would have advised you to do.
Download and run the Flash Player uninstaller program.
http://helpx.Adobe.com/Flash-Player/KB/uninstall-Flash-Player-Windows.html
Then download and install Flash Player; After unchecking installing Chrome and Google toolbar option:

If the problem persists, you may want to ask in the Forums of community Flash Player:

Windows Media Player has stopped working, as well as the sharing of multimedia files
My husband told me that he has always had difficulty to play the DVD on WMP. I discovered that it would not play because there was a problem with the audio. I couldn't find the solution to this problem. However, we were able to play, burn and rip CDs until what we downloaded Windows SP2 for Vista Home Basic (32 bit), two days ago. Since then, we have not been able to open the app, and the WMP network sharing Service. I tried to run the Setup program, but it is said that there is a newer version of WMP and it will not replace or repair. I wanted to see if I could find a solution to this problem without having to resort to reinstalling Vista or restore to an earlier point. I also noticed that when the WMP application has been updated July 15 to the new version below, there were times this video Web sites would not play and we would have to restart the computer so that we can read them.

WIN8 64bits - Recovery manager has stopped working error message
Hello world. Just bought a computer laptop 1310sa m6 with envy. I tried to create a rescue disk set by using the Recovery Manager. It does not start, just gives the error message "Recovery Manager has stopped working." and then informs me that windows is collecting information and inform me a solution... Being that this machine is only 2 days is a bit much that parties do not work, in my opinion, one most important parts who! Has anyone encountered this and y at - it a solution?
I tried to do a shadow with an O & O 7 disc image, works fine, but could not create a boot disk for a reason any (and Yes, I was using a 64-bit program!)
Any help and advice would be accepted with gratitude
JUST found the solution! DON'T bother with the HP Utility App Center. Go to search and type 'recover' and it will give you the option to create rescue disks... And it worked on my computer without any error message
