I should have mentioned I have tried that already as it was suggested earlier on in the thread.
U R A STAR!  Redownloading and reinstalling .NET framework as per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306160 fixed it. I have done both repairs sequentially, so cannot confirm whether it's v1.1 or v2.0 of the .NET framework that was the culprit, but this should defintely be added to the FAQ.Thanks again! :) |

Have you tried exiting PE, renaming / removing [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sysinternals\Process Explorer], and restarting PE?
Another thing that has helped for others is to repair installations of the .NET Framework on the affected system.
If neither of those work, you could try running PE from WinDbg or Dependency Walker to try to get more information about the crash.

Hi,
I've decided to try Process Explorer after reading about it in one of the IT blogs, but unfortunately I am having the same problem as the original poster: the latest version (10.x) crashes on startup. That is using Windows XP SP3 on AMD Athlon XP 3700+ system. Now, my PATH environment variable is fine (PATH=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;), and I can't seem to get any drwtsn32.log created when it crashes (I've tried re-enabling Dr Watson with "drwtsn32 -i" command). Is there anything else in your toolbox, guys? Many thanks! |

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! I had been following this thread for a while, then gave up. I returned today and re-read the entire thread, installed the debugging tools and symbols (unneccessary!)and just like kees continued to recieve the same error message. I ran dskchk and also got the same results as kees. Finally I reached the end of the thread and changed my environmental variables. They were set to Java something or other(don't know how), but once set to the ones you suggested "bam!" procexp is up and running! I hope at some point I can contribute to this forum.
Thanks guys! Question: Should I uninstall the debugger tools and symbols? |

Incorrect assumption:
You may not have entered a set path=... or path ... statement since DOS days. Yet, of course, the PATH environment variable has always been there, on all Windows systems. Only, starting with NT it moved from autoexec.bat to the registry. But you might have seen and modified it as described by thks. And some setup programmes will certainly have changed the systemwide PATH variable. CU and Merry XMas, Karl |

Same problem here.
I figure out why my ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE changed. I installed ActiveState Perl and it modified it. When I check my ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE, all that was there was PATH=C:\Perl\bin now my Path=C:\Perl\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\S ystem32\Wbem Thanks...... ------- So, to fix: Start>Setting>Control Panel>System>Advanced>Environment Variables Path=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem |

Confirmed. Same on my machine (WinXP Prof Sp1), so it must be correct.
