    When I'm trying to open winlogon.exe, nothing happens! Is it supposed to be opened like that and my computer has a problem, or am I just doing something wrong?

  2. Winlogon.exe Error

    So today I decided to reset my Acer Aspire Nitro laptop. I clicked to start fresh and the reset started. Some time later I came back and there was a massage that said thar he couldnt delete everything so I clicked on the only option which was "Got it" and
    next thing that pops up is this error message:

    Winlogon.exe - Application Error

    The instruction at 0x00007FFD64F0B4C0 referenced memory at 0x00007FFD64F0B4C0. The memory could not br written.

    Click on OK to determinate the program.

    So then when I click "OK" nothing happens and I only see black screen with cursor.

    winlogon.exe won't open

    winlogon.exe is the actual logon screen, it should always be running in the background. winlogon owns the ctrl+alt+del key combonation, so when you press that combo you activate winlogon.exe. You can't launch a secon winlogon process
