    Event Viewer DistributedCom error


    I have been experiencing regular PC freezes over the last few months and have only recently discovered the Event Viewer in an attempt to identify the culprit, (forgive me I am a novice PC user!).

    The freezing is a separate issue, but this morning I have logged in and all seems fine but the following error has come up in the Event Viewer just after login - can someone please give me an idea of what this relates to?

    :)

    File Explorer resets and closes unexpectedly

    Yes, I ran the SFC and it indicated no errors. However, I am ran the Event Viewer and it indicated a number of errors with the Service Control Manager and DistributedCOM.

  6. do u have Bluescreens? Because this subforum is specialized on analysing BSODs.

    And theres a modified hosts file to bypass software activation.

    It relates to authority. You can fix it by doing what it says - giving the SYSTEM account local launch authority to CDP Activity Store as described here

    Local Activation Permission

    Honestly I would not bother - It can safely be ignored. Event viewer is full of such DCOM errors and "fixing" them doesn't appear to do anything apart from stop them showing up in Event Viewer which while it can be fun (I think it is anyway) is a bit pointless really.

    It isn't connected to your BSOD problem anyway.
