mr_banana_pants Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Me and my family aren't having much luck! You guys sorted my problem out the other day, hopefully you can help with this one also. My dad has had a similar problem to me with windows update. He logged off windows the other night and it installed the updates. Now when he switches on the PC, you can get to the Windows "Log-On" page with all the Users listed. But only he can log onto correctly. Every other User get this message when they log on: "The application failed to initialise properly (0xc0000022). Click on ok to terminate the application" After they click "ok" they just see the desktop but with nothing on it and no option to do anything. He's tried making new user profiles but they dont' work either. Any ideas? Thanks again Quote
Jelly Bean Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Has dad tried a system restore to before the issue occured? Quote Rwy'n ceisio fy ngorau......................
mr_banana_pants Posted February 15, 2010 Author Posted February 15, 2010 He'd tried it after the issue occurred. And it hasn't helped the matter. Thanks Quote
RandyL Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 A google search produces several possibilities but I'm unsure if they are correct. Quote We are all members helping other members.

RandyL Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 One possibility is this, The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000022) However this is untested so proceed at your own risk.

RandyL Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 It might also be possible that many third party applications may have produced this error. What security products do you have installed? Perhaps an update caused this. Quote We are all members helping other members. Please return here where you may be able to help someone else.

mr_banana_pants Posted February 16, 2010 Author Posted February 16, 2010 Thanks Randy. I'm going to get him to try that. It's difficult because he lives about 300miles away from me! But I'll let you know what happens and how he fares! Thanks again Quote

Plastic Nev Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 Hi, if your still keeping an eye on this thread, a good idea now is go back to the original thread and have a further read of it. It now seems that a rootkit installed by hackers may be the overall problem, you will find I have given a link to a good scanner on that thread. Nev. Quote Need help with your computer problems?
