Windows 10: Application Popup Error Causing Restart

Hello,I would really appreciate any help in my situation. My PC is making random restarts most of the times daily, sometimes weekly. I checked the Event Viewer and found the below error being logged before each restart. The restart is so random, sometimes when opening games, sometimes when just browsing on Chrome.The description for Event ID 56 from source Application Popup cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local

How to troubleshoot an error that appears only at Restart or Sign out?

I get an error pop-up error message not every, but almost every time I Restart or Sign out. It's the screen with blue background and on top of Restart or Sign out text an error window says:

Explorer.exe - Application error. The instruction at 0x000… referenced memory at 0x000... The memory could not be written.

Sometimes the error code is just zeros, sometimes random numbers. I have tried so much already to troubleshoot this. For example these did not help in any way:

• MemTest86+ (no problems)
• Disabling any Services, Autoruns/ShellExView entries
• Low resolution mode
• BIOS settings are fine, no overclocking etc.
• DISM.exe and sfc
• etc.

However, these do make the error go away:

• End process for explorer.exe before Restart or Sign out
• Safe Mode
• Creating a new user profile (almost the same as clean installing Windows, many full days of work)
• Uninstalling NVIDIA graphics driver (then the card is unusable, of course)
• Disabling Device Manager / Display Adapters / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080

I already contacted NVIDIA and the graphics driver is not the culprit. Something has gone wrong with the user profile as the same driver works just fine in a new profile (and there's nothing wrong with the driver anyway, it's just the Restart or Sign out process that has a problem).

What can I do to fix this? One useful thing would be to have a step-by-step procedure for the Sign out. So that it'd ask before continuing to the next step and list what it's doing. Or if I could just disable whatever it does when the error appears.

 

Event ID 26 Application popup, Application error

Hello,

I have some servers that are still running under windows 2012r2.

Sometimes, users get a popup with the following errors :

Application popup: WerFault.exe - Application Error : The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142). Click OK to close the application.



Application popup: RdrCEF.exe - Application Error : The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022). Click OK to close the application.

I updated adobe reader and still get the error.

Is it related to user profile ?

Can we disabled those application popup ?

Regards

Rweiss
