Hello, I was viewing my event log and my Action Center under Problems. I found that for a long time, I have been having critical system events. The rundll32.exe_aepdu.dll "stopped working" under multiple occasions. Every few days there is another critical event which is the rundll32.

Here is the full technical details.

Per chance is the computer able to sleep after the crash if you are using sleep?

Run the sfc /scannow command in the elevated command prompt to fix possible system file corruption.

Yes, the computer can sleep fine. I have run sfc /scannow many times, with no error. I will run it again now to double check. Thanks.

wow that a fast sfc scan , 16 min.


if you read the link I posted it suggested running sfc ,if it fixes nothing it suggested you try disabling the service Application Experience ,this is what the .dll in your error is referring to [it investigates the compatibility of older programs and searches for updates for known problems. Disabling this service will not harm your computer]so if you don't run a lot of older program or need to check for update to the ones you do ,just go to services in control panel and disable application experience service

Is the aeinv.dll still in your system and do you have any programs running in Compatibility Mode at any time?

Run full virus scans as well as malware scans.

I have no Malware or Viruses, I take very good care of the computer. I use MalwareBytes Pro & AVG Antivirus. Maybe I had one in the past that causes the issue.

I'll try disabling the Application Experience, and see if the errors stop. Thanks.

you don't have to be running programs in compatibility mode to have the file , file is associated with the service mentioned ,I have the file on my win7 iam using right now ,and iam not running programs in compatibility mode, windows checks all program we try to install for compatibility ,that why you get a message when you try running /installing say a 64bit program on 32bit os and such or install IE9 on win Vista ,ect ect

It was two questions I asked, one for the dll and the other for programs in compatibility mod. Trying to determine if one is conflicting with the other.

Okay, the rundll32.exe_aepdu.dll error has stopped! But now there is a new problem.
Now instead of that error this is the new error: "Program Compatibility Data Updater stopped working". It has happened 3 times since my last post, and sometimes on shutdown I get an error message which I forgot to mention in my original post. The error message has changed, but it still goes by to fast to read. It only happens during shutdown. On the blue "Shutting Down" screen, an error message will appear right before it shuts off with one button to push "OK". I usually can't read it since it doesn't happen every time and it goes by fast.

Here is the technical details. Maybe this was caused by disabling the Application Experience.

There is 3 things to disable, not 2.

1) AitAgent - Under "Last Run Result" Says "The Operation Completed Successfully 0x0". I left it enabled.

2) Program Data Updater - Under "Last Run Result" Says "The Extended Attributes are Inconsistent 0x800700FF". I disabled it.

3) StartupAppTask - Under "Last Run Result" Says "The Operation Completed Successfully 0x0". I left it enabled.

I will wait a few days and report back whether I am still getting the same error. If you think I should disable "AitAgent" and "StartupAppTask" also, tell me. I left them enabled because it said they last ran fine.

It appears the issue has been solved. Thanks guys!
Its been a few days, and the error has not happened since 7/2/14. Usually it happens every day or every other day, it has been 5 days so i'll assume its fixed.

Solved! Thanks again.

Similar issue - fourth line in Task Scheduler

Nuccii - Have same issue on very new install of Win 8 Pro 64-bit that updated itself to Win 8.1 Pro 64-bit on a Dell Optiplex 7010 with 8GB RAM.

In Task Scheduler, for ProgramDataUpdater shows only (0C0000005) as Last Run Result, and I have numerous Error messages about this.

Instead of just Disabling, is there a fix to the underlying problem?

Or is this happening because I favored privacy over sharing info with MS when I first configured Win 8 and then Win 8.1?

Also, FYI, in my Task Scheduler sub-window. there are FOUR lines. The fourth (not listed above) is Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser, but it seems to run OK.

Thanks, and Happy Holidays.

Any further thoughts?
