My computer is Windows vista 32 bit
i use firefox
problem originaly affected pages with videos on it but now its effecting every single page i open and i get tons of pop ups and alerts saying crashed, closed, stopped working.
what can i do to stop this problem?

DEP (Data Execution Prevention) is Windows "protecting you from yourself".

The options to disable it are there... but "only if you trust yourself not to blow up the whole Internet" (sarcasm).

  • Data Execution Prevention has closed Adobe Reader

    I cannot launch Adobe Reader, got the following message
    When I close program, a message says "Data Execution Prevention has closed Adobe Reader."  I have searched the Microsoft Community for fixes, but those suggestions don't work.
    I'm running Windows Vista Home Basic Version 6 Service Pack 2, 32 bit and I have downloaded Adobe Reader 10.1.4

    You can download the 10.1.9 update patch from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5712
    Protected Mode is normally disabled from within Adobe Reader Preferences.  Since you cannot even open Adobe Reader, you can disable it via Windows registry: download, unzip, then run the attached registry script.

  • On closing Acrobat Windows detect an error "Data Execution Prevention has closed Adobe Acrobat".

    Hi,
    I developed a plugin which captures Before/After open, close and save events and perform some operation inside these events.
    I tested the plugin in Windows XP and Acrobat 9.0.0 and 10.0.0 and everything works fine. But when in test my plugin on Windows Server 2008 Standard 32 bits, then windows detect an error while closing the acrobat and shows the following message:
    "Data Execution Prevention has closed Adobe Acrobat"
    I am using Acrobat 10.0.0 for testing in Windows Server 2008 operating system. Also, debugging the program shows no error but plugin does not produce the desired result when tested on Windows Server 2008 Standard 32 bits operating system.
    Can anyone please giude me how to resolve this issue??
    Thanks in advance!

    Are you really using 10.0.0?  You've installed no updates to it??

  • Itunes continues to crash and I get the Data Execution Prevention error from Windows and it shuts down. How do I fix my Itunes?? This startes happening after the Itunes update

    Itunes continues to crash and I get a Data Execution Prevention error.

    Vista 64 bit
    Many thanks. If you're still not launching after your complete uninstall/reinstall, we'll go searching for old QuickTime componentry stashed in non-standard locations on the PC.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    Open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • HT1527 Can't open iTunes...windows connectivity test says that iTunes has stopped working -  Date execution prevention has closed iTunes.   What do I do now?

    I can't open iTunes...Windows connectivity test says that iTunes has stopped working....Date execution prevention has closed iTunes.  

    If you update your QuickTime Player to the latest version, does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes?

  • HT2292 Have upgraded to itunes 11.0.1.12 start itunes and it is closed, message reads I tunes closed to help protect computer, data execution prevention has closed itunes. windows Vista 32bit

    Have upgraded to itunes 11.0.1.12. Start itunes and it is closed with the message itunes closed to help protect computer data execution prevention has closed itunes. operating system is ms vista 32 bit. I have followed the procedures that I can find on the itune support site.

    You're welcome. Glad you got things sorted out.
    (No problem about not spotting the solutions ... the most common causes of this sort of message changes over time, so it's not straightforward to be able to tell when a given piece of advice still applies to the symptoms. Definitely worth posting to try to get a current heads-up on the likely contemporary causes of a particular error message.)

  • Why Might Data Execution Prevention Be Closing iTunes 11.2.0.115?

    I don’t own any Apple hardware and only use iTunes to listen to songs I purchased in the iTunes store that only work in iTunes. I started noticing problems when I updated to version 11.2.0.115 today. The “iTunes.exe” process remains in the “Processes” list of my Windows Task Manager for about 30 seconds after I exit the program. A balloon then appears in my taskbar saying Data Execution Prevention has closed iTunes. Windows Help and Support suggests seeing if a DEP-compatible version is available before turning DEP off for the program. I’m using Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 32-bit. What, if anything, can I do?

    I fixed it on my computer.  Not sure which of the steps I did fixed it so I will list all of them.
    I wasn't getting the error until I did the following (to prevent it from just crashing on logging into the iTunes Store)
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/23987910#23987910
    I added C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support; to the system variables PATH (depending on your operating system, your file path will be different).  How to do that has been outlined in the above linked article.
    This now caused DEP to freak out whenever I logged into the store and close iTunes.  Adding iTunes to the DEP filter didn't solve the problem.  So I removed all the saved system settings for iTunes and ran Apple Software Update.  I also went to the DEP and added every .exe I could find in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple to the exceptions list (again, depending on your OS the file path may be different.)
    To remove the saved system settings for iTunes you can find those in C:\Documents and Settings (for Win XP) or C:\Users (for Win 8).  Find a folder named AppData or Application data under various user names and remove any Apple related files you can.  I had one .log file that couldn't be deleted, but that shouldn't be a problem.

  • Ive had my laptop for almost a year and now its saying no bootable device. what do i do?

    i love my MacBook Pro it my life. But the other day i was playing Sims three on it and i put it outside so i could cook dinner and it shut off and now its say no bootable device-- insert boot disk and press any key. I went to bestbuy and talked to the geek squad and another kid that has a mac and told me to put in the boot up diskbut he also said that i will loose everything on ther and i cant i have all my school things on there and it cant be deleted. help lexie

    Hi Lexie,
    Try these steps
    When the grey screen appears when you first switch on the mac, hold down the alt key straight away until a hard drive icon pops up. If this doesnt work step 2
    Insert the mac install dvd into your mac when the mac is on, dont worry it can be on the grey screen. Then restart the mac with this disk in the drive and as soon as the grey screen pops up hold the "C" key, this will boot from the disk drive. After a period of time a menu should pop up asking to install mac, but dont worry about this. Just goto the menu bar at the top and find startup disk. Once you are in there select the Machintosh HD or which ever your drive is called, then select restart. This just resets the startup disk. If this fails step 3
    When you turn the mac on hold Command+Option+P+R before the grey screen appears and hold this until the mac restarts and gives you 3 beeps. Then let go and it should work This command just resets the PRAM and NVRAM which is just a small part of memory that holds simple information such as the startup disk.
    All of these steps will not make you reinstall anything or damage any of your data.
    Good luck!
