    Desktop Heaps


    I have this third party software called Veeam.Had some issues doing backup so i proceed to contact Veeam support.They told me is ' Timeout caused by Desktop Heap allocation failure'.After adjusting the third value at HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\SubSystemsi am still unable to do the backup. Any other reasons why i am not able to do backup?

    :)

    Desktop Heap tracing issue

    I am running a WPF application which include some VB.net , and C++ component on windows 10. After running it for some hours it gives me warning "A desktop heap allocation failed." in event viewer for source Win32k with event id 243. I tried to install
    demonheap which was supported in older windows version but it is not working in windows 10 /7. Is there any other way I can trace desktop heap in windows 10

    Desktop Heaps

    windows 10 deleted my desktop files

    Step 1 - I upgraded to Win 10 and lost all my files on Desktop.

    Step 2 - Found the files in Network - USers- Desktop

    copied all files again to desktop.

    Step 3- Restarted my machine again and lost desktop files again.

    Step 4 - As suggested did the following as listed below but dont find my files.

    • Press “Windows + E”, open This PC/Computer
    • Open Local Disc C, open Windows.old
    • Click on Users, select your User name
    • Go to desktop folder
    Cant find my files. Why is Win 10 deleted files again and again from Desktop ?.
