Windows 10: Windows 10 closes some programs without error message

Hello eveyrone,

So, for the past 2 days my pc is displaying an unusual behaviour. Every installer that I download does not work.
Some programs like uTorrent or Dolphin or Hijackthis don't work. I have tried compatibility, I have tried running them as admin. And nothing worked.

Funny thing is, they run normally when I boot my pc in safemode. I have researched throughout the internet and I haven't found a similar problem nor solution.

EDIT: If I acess them through the cmd console, they run normally. Go figure.

:)

 

Media Creation Tool crashes/closes without error (trying to install windows 10)

So I downloaded the windows 10 media creation tool and chose "upgrade this pc now". It downloaded and verified, but after the "creating windows 10 media" page finishes, the program just closes/crashes. No error message appears and I don't get any notification
as to why the program might have closed.

I tried this many times and each time this same thing happened- the program just closes without going on.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Windows 10 "Anniversary" update won't let a program start

There is a program that ran just fine prior to the Anniversary 1067 update but now gives me an error message upon startup.

Error Message:

(Program Name) has stopped working

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.

Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is

available.

Close program (BUTTON)

NOTE: for some reason on this icon, there is no Troubleshooting Compatability option where I could try to change how windows starts the program.

Hello Gary and thanks for your reply.

That did not help. It's not only a problem with installers I download, some programs I already have are not opening anymore, and when they open they close within a second. If I run them as admin, they last a little longer (2-3 secs) then close. Like I said, when opening them through cmd, they work.

I tried uninstalling one of these programs (utorrent) and not even the uninstaller is working.

 

Hi, you mentioned that behaviour is normal in Safe Mode. Thus you could try disabling all your startups (e.g. via task manager) and seeing what happens. If your problems disappear, enable programs in small groups or whatever's appropriate until you find the culprit.

Whilst I've not seen behaviour as extreme as yours, I have seen a couple of older programs conflicting with aspects of newer Win 10 dialogues.

Put another way, did you make any particular change about 2 days ago- do you keep a record of changes made- and after that, do you have system restore points or in particular disk images to which you can revert?
