After Effects.exe has stopped working (on initialization)

I have a Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit machine with Intel Core2 Extreme (Q6850) @ 3GHz with 4GB RAM 1TB drive space with 152GB used. [Adobe Creative Suite 3 Master Collection]
Upon initialization of Adobe After Effects I see the splash screen as it loads it's components then all of a sudden I get an error message that "After Effects.exe has stopped working", Vista then attempts to find a "solution" and then the program closes. This also is occuring with Sound Booth & Premier Pro so I'm thinking it may be a codec issue. I've tried reinstalling (repairing) and I've uninstalled it completely then rebooted and installed it again with no success. Unfortunately I'm stuck with Vista, are there any known solutions to this issue?

Exactly as David says. Vista installs always require Administrator access. If you have turned off UAC, log on to the Administrator account, otherwise choose the method already mentioned. Before attempting this again, use the CS3 Clean Scripts from the support pages. They will delete everything instantly and spare you a lengthy uninstall, plus they will fix the install references on the system, so you will get a clean install.

PProHeadless.exe has stopped working error when opening projects in Adobe Media Encoder CS6

Hi, I recently upgraded to Adobe Cloud CS6 and am having problems with the Adobe Media Encoder CS 6 (version 6.0.1.31 64-bit).
When I try to add Adobe Premiere projects in AME, it sometimes gives me the following error:
PProHeadless.exe has stopped working
I tried rebooting, and it still gives me the same error. Sometimes the project will load, sometimes it won't.
The Premiere projects contain a H.264 .mov file coming from my Canon T2i. I also added an overlay logo to the bottom right of the video that I created in Adobe After Effects, which only contains text, no effects, no motion, etc. Sometimes I also have a .wav file recorded from a Zoom H4n, but not always. I usually edit those in Adobe Audition with the remove noise feature.
I am running on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. I'm using an i7 with 16GB ram and an ATI 6870 video card.
I have the LUT buddy plugin installed.
It will give me the error the first time I try to load the project, and the connection to Dynamic Link Server will fail. Afterwards, if I try to load the project again, even if I restart AME, it stays stuck in the Connecting to Dynamic Link server...
Any help anyone could provide would be appreciated.

Hi Dima,
Thank you very much for your prompt reply. Dragging the sequence from PPro to AME made AME lock up. But your second suggestion of exporting the video directly from PPro seems to be working. I still have 6 minutes to go, but at least it got up to 25% so far, so everything seems good.
Thank you once again!
(although it would be nice if I could go through AME just in case)

CDPdrv.exe has stopped working/responding

I have installed Cisco's IP Communicator v7.0(2) on my laptop in a lab environment. It registers to my CME running on a 3825 fine. I have enabled video support and launch Video Advantage. I can see video, and everything looks fine so far. I have not yet setup another camera and PC to test. My machine is Vista Business Edition. After a few minutes, I get a message that pops up and states something to the effect "CDPdrv.exe has stopped working". ??? Anyone seen this? I was going to try and verify this is just a Vista problem, but it runs way too slow on my XP VMWare machine to make it worth trying.
Regards,
Scott

I'm having the same issue as well. On a vista laptop I get "CDPdrv.exe has stopped working" just after installing UVA 2.1.2 on a laptop that already had IP Communicator 7.0.2.0 installed.
In this order...after getting the error the first time.
1) I uninstalled UVA.
2) I uninstalled IP Communicator.
3) I restarted my laptop
4) I installed IP Communicator, started it, and then restarted.
5) I installed UVA, started it, and then restarted.
6) I started to see the "CDPdrv.exe has stopped working"
If I choose "close the program" I am alerted of this issue a few minutes later. The service continues to crash and UVA does not seem to understand that I have IP Communicator installed...
I can use this setup without any issues with the IP phone hardware, it's just after I add IP Communicator (softphone) to the mix that I start getting errors.
I talked to a TAC engineer who told me that this was a "known issue" but did not elaborate...I'm waiting to hear back.

Error message: "application.exe has stopped working" under BEX event name on Windows 7 64-bit.

I am trying to run a third party program on my Windows 7 64-bit. It has an executable file.
1. When I double click on this file (appname.exe), I will see a GUI window.
2. In this GUI window, I will have to select a dynamic link library file (appDLL.dll) to load into the appname.exe that will run the application. This DLL file is compiled in Visual C++ 2010 Express based on a C source code under the Release Win32
mode.
3. It is supposed to run after step 2. Instead it give the BEX error message saying "appkernel.exe has stop working." There is no online solution at this time when I select that option to search for an online solution.
I can run this program on my Windows 7 32-bit computer. What does this error message mean? Why is there an issue like this on Windows 7 64-bit? How can I fix this issue? The detailed description of the problem is below.

Hi Brian,
Thank you for the reply!
The third party software provider wrote the source code in C. When I compiled this source code, the DLL file will be created in store in the Release folder in the same project directory of the source code.
I just double check my computer, I have the following Visual C++ packages installed on it:
1. Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable
2. Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (x64)
3. Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x64 9.0.21022
4. Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x64 9.0.30729.17
5. Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x64 9.0.30729.4148
6. Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x64 9.0.30729.6161
7. Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x86 9.0.30729.4148
8. Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x86 9.0.30729.6161
9. Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable - 10.0.40219
10. Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Runtime - 10.0.40219
11. Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable - 10.0.40219
12. Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Runtime - 10.0.40219
13. Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express - ENU
14. Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1
15. Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express Prerequisites x64 - ENU
16. Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2
17. Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Multi-Targeting Pack
From what I understand the Visual C++ 2008 Runtime is included in the Redistributable package.

Getting "setup.exe has stopped working" message when trying to install labview 2011 or 2012 on a windows 7 machine

I am getting a "setup.exe has stopped working" message when trying to install labview 2011 or 2012 on a windows 7 machine. I already tried running setup.exe as an administrator with the same results. I have Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 installed on the affected machine. Could this be the cause of this issue? Or does someone know the root cause of such error?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi - are you getting it at the start of installation, during or after 100% progress has finished?
Is it just LabVIEW you're installing, or is it drivers too, in which case, what was the last large package that was installing at the time?
This could be caused by the NVIDIA chipset driver :

Kdbsync.exe has stopped working - win 7 64 bit

I am running Win 7 64 bit on an HP Pafilion HPE h8-1360t. After last week's round of updates my computer will no longer play mp4 files, the Media Center will no longer come up (Message: "Windows Media Player has stopped working"), You Tube files will no longer play, the HP Magic Canvas also won't come up, and the mysterious message "kdbsync.exe has stopped working" comes up when I reboot.
After hours of reading forums, I have found that it appears to be related to the AMD grapics card update. My computer has an AMD Radeon HD 7570 card.
On the AMD site this is listed as a legacy card for XP computers. I am not sure why HP installed it in a computer running Win 7 64 bit with an Intel Core I7 CPU. This does not give me confidence in HP equipment.
The AMD utility correctly detected my card and told me that I needed a driver called:
14-4-win7-win8.1-64-dd-ccc-whql.exe
But when I clicked on the Down load button, I got the message, "Could not conntect to server. Could not parse error."
I did not find any such driver on your website.
How can I get my Media Center working again?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The idea of turning off all the non-Microsoft services scares me to death as I now have my computer running the way I want it to.
I also posted on the AMD forums as I had determined that their board was the offending piece of hardware:
http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=454&threadid=173935&forumid=11 You might want to read my reply to the agent who helped me.
Basically I had to uninstall all AMD drivers and sotware using Control Panel/Programs & Features and then run the AMD Clean Uninstall Program: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMD-Clean-Uninstall-Utility.aspx
Then install drivers from here:
http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows+7+-+64#amd-catalyst-packages
I would not recommend that you install this set of drivers unless you are SURE that they are correct for your hardware. I could not use the Steps 1-5 on the AMD site because the last step required that you pick the operating system that your hardware is running. The video card that HP installed in my "latest and greatest" computer of a year ago was so old that the only operating systems offered in step 5 were XP and Vista! Be aware that HP does use legacy hardware in its newest computers.

ScenarioEngine.exe has stopped working when trying to install sqlserver 2014 Express with tools.

I have downloaded the enu file from MS, for the above SQLServer 2014 express edition.
After checking that all the prerequisets had been met, I extracted the files, from the enu, to a folder and ran the Setup.exe.
Immediately, I received the warning "The ScenarioEngine.exe has stopped working" and the installation stops.
I did not encounter this issue installing SQLServer 2012 Express with tools, on the same pc, and it has been running without any issues,
The pc concerned is running Windows 8.1.

SQL Server 2014
1. Save the following in a text file, change the extension to .reg, double-click on the file, and on the prompt that appears, select yes to populate the registry:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\120\Bootstrap]
"BootstrapDir"="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft SQL Server\\120\\Setup Bootstrap\\"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\120\Bootstrap\Setup]
"PatchLevel"="12.00.2000.80"
2. Next, copy the following files and folders from the media to the specified destinations:
File/Folder in media
Destination
X64/X86 folder (depending on what architecture you want to install)
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\120\Setup Bootstrap\SQLServer2014
Setup.exe
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\120\Setup Bootstrap\SQLServer2014
Resources folder
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\120\Setup Bootstrap\SQLServer2014
Next, re-run the setup, and it should proceed beyond the point of error this time.
As always, comments/suggestions/feedback are welcome and solicited.

Adl.exe has stopped working message

This is very frustrating because I'm new to Flex 4 (Win 7, 32 bit) and everything I read has not led me to a solution (at least something I understand).
Every time I test my app I get the message adl.exe has stopped working and I have to close the file.
I'm running the current version of Air (2.5). But the adl.exe is version 1.5.3.
Is there a conflict?

Hello everyone,
In the past we've received a few crash dumps for this issue but the call stacks have been less than helpful. I've got an alternate way for the crash dumps to be created and I'm hoping someone can help me out. Here's all you need to do:
Download the two attached files: Enable Crash Logging.reg and Disable Crash Logging.reg.
Double-click the Enable Crash Logging.reg file and allow it to write to your registry
Recreate the ADL crash
After the crash, open a file browser window and type the following in the navigation bar:%localappdata%
Go into the CrashDump folder and you should see a new .dmp file for ADL.
Zip that file up and send it to [email protected] or give me a dropbox link and hopefully we'll get better info than our previous attempts
Optional, double-click the Disable Crash Logging.reg file downloaded in Step 1 and click OK to disable future logging. Note that enabling will only save 5 crash logs before it starts deleting older ones. This step turns this functionality off completely.
Thanks,
Chris

"SapDesignStudio.exe has stopped working"

Hi
I have Design studio 1.3 and I've built a model over a UNX
Everything was working fine untill today
and now after opening the model and a few seconds/minutes of working with it, I get error message
"SapDesignStudio.exe has stopped working" and I have to close Design studio.
It is woking fine in LaunchPad with no errors, so it seems there is nothing wrong with the model itself
Please help, I'm desperate

Ubd.exe has stopped working Windows 7

UBD.EXE is located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Internet Services and is part of the icloud control panel app that was installed. During login the system atttempts to load this program and I get the message ubd.exe has stopped working and the program closes.
The result of this program failing to load is that I cannot login to icloud control panel. It just hangs when I try to login.
The problem appears to be related to a group policy setting on the Windows machine. I wrote all the policies and I do not have anything set to block this program. I believe that the program is having an issue with the folder redirection we use at work, re-driecting the appdata folder to a server location. If I take a similar machine and prevent policies from loading, the UBD.EXE loads fine, and iCloud works fine.
As policies are a part of our user environment, giving the suggestion that I turn them off is not an option.
Has anyone else seen this issue, and do you have any recommendations for how to fix it?

Sometimes the new hdd requires prepping with Cyberlink Utility cd first. Download and Save the file. Once download is complete, put a blank cd in your drive and click the file to create a boot cd. Boot with this cd and wait until you get a green check mark indicating hdd is ready. Remove the cd , insert first Recovery Disk and restart the laptop.
