Windows 10: MMC detects error in a snap-in

Howdy,

I am running a HP All-in-One 23-g017c, Windows 10 Home 64-bit Operating system.

A few hours ago I was trying to open my Event Viewer to check on something and discovered the following problem. I clicked on my Component Services like I always do. I then clicked on Event Viewer and then clicked on Custom Views and that is when I got the following message:

"MMC has detected an error in a snap-in and will unload it"

Any ideas or thoughts? *Huh

Thanks and regards,


:)

 

How To Fix MMC Error "detected error in snap in..." ?


I am trying to disable Cortana.

In the GPE I go to edit "Cortana" and I get a message that MMC has detected an error in a snap-in.

Found a fix on the web that involved adding to the system path.

But it hasn't worked.

Anyone got any ideas? hopefully.......

 

MMC - Could not create the Snap-in

Having Windows 10 Version 1703 64-based on a HP Laptop.

Tried to install gpedit.msc, but continuously have error message

'MMC could not create the snap-in'

with 'CLSID: {8FCOB734-A0E1-11D1-A7D3-0000F87571E3}'

Have tried trolling Google with all suggestions

1) sfc /scannow - with no issues found

2) https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=M...&ie=UTF-8&gws_rd=cr&ei=LtR9Wa3jAoifgAbtg5rIAw

3) Fix for MMC could not create snap-in for Group Policy Object editor at Multiplay Labs

4) http://computerstepbystep.com/group_policy_windows_xp.html

5) http://troubleshooter.xyz/wiki/fix-mmc-could-not-create-the-snap-in/

Where one suggests to delete the 'CLSID: {8FCOB734-A0E1-11D1-A7D3-0000F87571E3}' in the registry to create a new clsid on reboot/restart, I cannot delete it as it returns as an error.

Have installed the gpedit.msc on my Tablet with no issues with same gpedit download.

Any clues

 

When i used the MDT, error occurred that "MMC has detected an error in a snap-in and will unload it"

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand how important
Microsoft Deployment Toolkit is for you and you want this to work as expected. You can check this article

However, as the issue is with Microsoft Deployment Toolkit, I would suggest you to post your query in
