Generic host process for win32 services has encountered a problem and needs to close.

This is a problem faced by most Windows XP users while they are connected to the internet. You are connected to the internet and after a few minute’s hassle free surfing, the following message appears:-

If you click the ‘Don’t Send’ button- The internet stops. Then you have to restart the PC for internet surfing. Again after a few minutes, the same drama happens.

Solve this through a slight Registry manipulation. Open Registry Editor and navigate to the following key-

Regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > System > Current Control Set > Services > NetBT > Parameters . (See the screen shot)

Click on the Parameter key and on Right pane you will see a key “TransportBindName” with value “\Device\”. Double click on the key and clear the value. (You are deleting the value “\Device\”). Now the key is without any value or the value is Blank.

Next navigate to the following key-

Regedit >HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software >Microsoft>Ole

(See the screenshot).

Click on the key “Ole” and in the right pane double click the key “EnableDCOM”. The default value is “Y” and make it “N” by changing it.

Close the Registry editor and restart the windows. You won’t get that annoying message anymore and enjoy a hassle free internet.

AUTOMATIC OPENING (POP OPEN) OF A FOLDER ON LOGON

Many times it was observed that a folder- some times My Documents, otherwise System32- pops open immediately after logon. This is normally due to a registry mismanipulation. The problem can be solved in the following manner.

To perform the following actions you must be a member of Administrator group.

Start Menu > Run

Type regedit

Enter

Registry Editor opens.

Navigate to the following key-

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Microsoft > Windows NT > Current Version > Winlogon

On the right pane, select the key Userinit and modify the value as - C:\Windows\System32\Userinit

(Value can be modified by double clicking the key and then type the value in the following box.)

Now navigate to-

HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Current Version > Explorer > Advanced

On the right pane, change the value of key PersistBrowsers to 0.

Close the Registry Editor.

Restart the PC and the problem is solved.

CAN NOT FIND SCRIPT ENGINE "VBSCRIPT" FOR SCRIPT ... MESSAGE ON LOGON

Recently I have observed the subject problem in one of the Windows XP Pro SP-I PC. This annoying message popped up on every logon quoting some script name. The reason behind was a corrupted or missing DLL file possibly by a malicious activity which was healed by an Antivirus.

How to fix it?
An extensive search in Google gave me many outputs. The one which worked for me was the following one.
Start Menu > Run
Type the following in the Run field...
regsvr32 %systemroot%\system32\vbscript.dll
Press enter. You will get a positive confirmation message "DllRegisterserver in C:\windows\system32\vbscript.dll is succeeded"
And the problem is killed.

Another way of doing this is by editing the registry.
I assume that you know the basic registry editing functions and precautions. If not, take the guidance of an expert friend or ask me for more details.

Startmenu > Run > regedit
Enter

Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT > CLSID > {B54F3741-5B07-11Cf-A4B0-00AA00A55E8}> InprocServer32
On the right side pane change the value of Default Key to C:\WINDOWS\system32\vbscript.dll (provided your Windows is in C Drive.)

Close the Registry Editor and Restart your PC.

That's all.

C:\Recycled\SVCHost.exe

This error haunts Windows users during each log on. In fact SVCHOST is an essential service running in windows. The message is caused normally by the residue string left by a Trojan sort of Malware which was cured or quarantined by an Anti Virus. To remove this nuisance message, a bit of registry editing is required.

For beginners-Go to Run in start menu and type 'regedit' then enter. You will get the windows registry opened. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER and expand it. Now further expand it till you reach SOFTWARE > MICROSOFT > WINDOWS NT > CURRENT VERSION >EXPLORER > WINLOGON. Click on the WINLOGON key on the left pane and on the right pane you can see an entry named Shell. Double click on it and a box appears with the Value of the String. In the Value box you will see Explorer.exe C:\Recycled\Svchost.exe. Now carefully select the text starting from C:\Recycled\Svchost.exe and delete it. The value box should have only Explorer.exe. Press OK. Close the Registry Editor and restart your machine. That should solve the problem.
