Data execution prevention

[Guest BILLG]

This particular PC XP SP2 has been giving me all kinds of issues. I can not

even get into Windows Explorer. I get a Data Execution Prevention message.

This also means Control Panel and quite a few other things don't work.

 

Windows Explorer does however work in Safe Mode. Any ideas on how to

correct the problem?

Without more to go on, try this

You receive a "Data Execution Prevention" error message in Windows XP

Service Pack 2 or in Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005

Try to Turn the DEP OFF by doing this:

Right click My Computer and select properties, then on the System properties

click on Advanced Tab.

Then click on StartUp and Recovery Button, on the StartUp and Recovery

window click on Edit Button under System Startup and edit like this:

 

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP

Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=AlwaysOff.

 

Then click On Performance Button under Advanced tab, on Performance Options

click on Data Execution Prevention Tab and check this Radio Button:

(*) Turn on DEP for essential windows programs and services only.

If you have a third party shell running in the background can cause this

error to occur and an BHO on your Browser so with Process Explorer you will

see which is causing this error.

 

1- Click start >> Control Panel >> Double Click Network and Internet

Connections >> Double click Internet Options, on the IE Properties window

you will see these Options:

General | Security | Privacy | Content | Connections | Programs

| Advanced .

Click on Programs tab then click Manage Add-Ins and Disable all non-Verified

Add-Ins there and Reboot your machine and try to open the Windows explorer

(you need to Renable the Add-Ins One-by-One later and see the culprit which

will cause the Error and Remove it or leave it disabled).
