Application popup: DDE Server Window: explorer.exe - Application Error : The instruction at 0x676e4f06 referenced memory at 0x674e1d38. The memory could not be read.


Click on OK to terminate the program


Got that after closing bunch of programs and shutting down fast. Not sure what it means.

Do you get the error repeatedly, or was it just once?
If just once, keep an eye out for the next time.

If more than once, please do the following:
- open Event Viewer (eventvwr.msc)
- expand the Custom Views category (left click on the > next to the words "Custom Views")
- right click on Administrative Events
- select "Save all Events in Custom View as..."
- save the file as Admin.evtx
- zip up the file (right click on it, select "Send to", select "Compressed (zipped) folder")
- upload it with your next post (if it's too big, then upload it to a free file-hosting service and post a link here).

A few errors in your Event Viewer Admin log, but nothing serious enough to try and fix if you're not having problems.

If the problems continue, try this:
Then please run the following DISM commands to see if there's any problems with the system (from an elevated (Run as administrator) Command Prompt). Press Enter after each one:
Code:
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
Code:
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

If the problem is fixable, you can use this command to repair i (from an elevated (Run as administrator) Command Prompt). Press Enter after typing it:
Code:
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
