Windows 10: RuntimeBroker Error Application not found

When I right-click on a program icon in the start menu or File Explorer and ask to open the file location, I receive RuntimeBroker Error Application not found.

RuntimeBroker problems!

I never seen a RuntimeBroker issue. I'm suggesting you to try basic fixes.

Did you run sfc /scannow
and
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
and
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth ?


What antivirus you have? Is it up to date?

 

Windows 10 Event ID 10010 and 10016 Errors With DistributedCOM

Hey all, sorry for posting in an older thread. First time poster here, so I don't know all the forum etiquette *Redface

I have followed all the steps by Vaio 7 and others and got to the step mentioned above by fdegrove.

My event log states: "The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID {blahblah} and APPID {blahblah} to the user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM SID (S-1-5-18) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable)."

The only users I have listed in Runtime Broker > Security > Launch and Activate Permissions > Edit are: ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES and SELF. Those already have Local Activation permissions.

So should I add user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM SID (S-1-5-18) or user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM or user SYSTEM? Or is it supposed to be something else like administrators?

 

Live tiles not working and runtimebroker errors

Hey sorry I did not reply earlier.

It seems live tiles are now fixed, the apps needed to be launched again for the live tiles to be fully reset it seems.

However I'm still getting the RuntimeBroker errors in the System log. It seems to happen when I open the start menu and stay on it for a few seconds (seems the timing is similar to the time needed for the live tiles to animate).

I don't have much clues about those RuntimeBroker errors, trying to fix the permission did not work so...
