Hi,
To find out detailed information about this error, please look for the related event log and then copy here.
Anyway, to exclude influence of 3rd software and services, I recommend you to following the steps below:
Type msconfig in run
Click on Services tab, put a check in the "Hide all Microsoft services" checkbox.
Click on "Disable All" button.
Click on Startup tab, and then click on "Disable All" button again.
Press OK button and then "Restart" button on the following window.
After reboot, please check if this issue still occurs.
For detailed steps, you can refer to

  • Office 2013: Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working

    Hi,
    I have problems with adding additional e-mail address to my Outlook. When I open the Mail Control Panel Item, go to my Exchange Profile and add a new e-mail address I get a popup indicating that the Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working.
    The only way of adding extra e-mail addresses is to remove my entire Outlook Profile. In the initial wizard I can add all Exchange mailboxes that I need (I have 3). After I've configured my Outlook profile I always receive the Rundll32 error. When I try
    to create a second Outlook profile I still get the same error.
    I've tried the following:
    - Repair OST file
    - Repair Office -> Control Panel and Online Repair
    - Reinstall Office
    - Reinstall my entire PC
    It doesn't matter which e-mail address I add in the initial Outlook configuration wizard. I always receive the error when I try to add a new mailbox, even when I add a mailbox that does not exist (e.g. [email protected]).
    Even after reinstalling my PC I still get the same error. I'm using Windows 8.1 (x64) and Office 2013 (32-bit) on a Lenovo W540. None of my colleagues have this issue. It's a domain joined PC and we are not using Roaming Profiles.
    For troubleshooting I also created a local account on my laptop but I get the same issues with this account.

    Hi,
    I'm also using Office 2013 32-bit and Windows 8.1 64-bit on my computer but doesn't get this issue. As you mentioned you reinstalled your PC, the first thing I suggest is to make sure your Windows and Office have been up to date.
    The second thing is to make sure you are using the system with an administrator account, this ensures you the enough permission.
    There is a possibility that some 3rd-party programs are interfering with "Mail", we can try to perform a clean boot to determine whether background programs are interfering with this:
    1.Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search. Or, if you are using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, and then click
    Search.
    2.Type msconfig in the search box, and then tap or click
    msconfig.
    3.On the Services tab of the System Configuration
    dialog box, tap or click to select the Hide all Microsoft services
    check box, and then tap or click Disable all.
    4.On the Startup tab of the System Configuration
    dialog box, tap or click Open Task Manager.
    5.On the Startup tab in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then click
    Disable.
    6.Close Task Manager.
    7.On the Startup tab of the System Configuration
    dialog box, tap or click OK, and then restart the computer.
    If in clean boot the issue doesn't exist, the issue was probably caused by the 3rd-party programs. For further information to troubleshoot, you can refer to this kb below:

    It's recommended to download and install
    Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

  • VuGen 11.52 windows host process (Rundll32) Pop up

    Hi, I was recording a script in VuGen 11.52 and at the end when I stop the recording I get the pop up box saying:
    windows host process (Rundll32). Can anyone suggest me what this message is all about?I would really appreciate the suggestion!
    Thank You.

    Hi
    As far as I know Rundll32.exe is a program created by Microsoft required to run Dynamic Link Library (DLL) files. But also spyware can use this to run virus programs under the same name.
    I recommend scanning the system using a Antivirus software. If nothing would be detected then you can tick the box "do not show again

    Hi,
    What’s the result in Clean boot mode?
    If this issue does not persists, I would suggest you check your applications.
    If it still exists in Clean Boot mode, please run SFC command to fix system file.

  • Error message: Host process for windows services stopped

    I recently had to install a new hard drive into my laptop. I am running windows vista and have installed all updated drivers. After installing itunes and uploading my backed up library, I went to play a song and I got the error "host process for windows services stopped working and was closed." Movies play fine. I have searched but have not found anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    Q I just upgraded to a new mobo and CPU, the EVGA X58 SLi and i7 920, and this issue still persists! That means it is either the sound card or Steam. The drivers on the CD have no issues, only the newer ones do. So by deduction there is something wrong with the new drivers, but I need them to not BSOD in OpenAL!

  • A135-S4527 Host Process for Windows Services stopped...

    I have started getting a Windows error: Host Process for Windows Services stopped working and was closed.  Laptop runs fine except my network connection says Connection Status: Unknown The service to detect this status is turned off and McAfee stopped working.  Can't run any of the MS tools either.  I am suspicous of conficker e but don't know how to detect or remove it.  Have seen the b variant on an XP machine at work, but the tools we used on it don't work on Vista.
    I am running Vista Home Edition (came on Laptop) upgraded to SP1 with auto-updates on.  McAfee was also set for auto-updates and nightly full scans, active e-mail and internet scanning.  No recent software downloads except for updates.
    Have been having the issue since about April 28.  Tried to restore but no dates exist past May 5.  Tried the F8 Startup recovery no problems found.  Have tried restarting services but they quickly stop again.  Uninstalled McAfee and tried AVG. It allowed defintion updates and I scanned all files.  No viruses, trojans or malware detected.
    Any suggestions?  I have a tasklstserv file I can copy and paste if it will help.

    That's a bad-sector event. At a command prompt (cmd.exe), run chkdsk /r.
       Event ID 7 Source Disk
    But it doesn't seem likely that's the cause of the message. When you get another one, note the time and check the Application and System logs for entries at that exact time.
    Thanks for the detailed information.
    What virus protection do you use?

    Which OS? Which sound card?
    Something went wrong when you updated your drivers.
    Were there any error messages when you updated your sound drivers?
    Can you adjust volume on Windows 'mixer' (Control Panel-->Sounds and Multimedia --> Audio tab:Sound Playback:Volume)? If not then somehow you have maybe 'lost (control over)' windows kmixer.
    If you got XP then try if reinstalling SP2 helps anything. Check also first, if "Audio Service" is running (on services manager).

  • I keep getting a popup that says"host process for window services has stopped"

    hp s5220f
    microsoft windows 7 home premium edeition (64 bit)
    I keep getting a popup window that says "host process for window services has stopped"
    How can I get rid of this?

    Hello tribefanz,
    Sounds like a compatiblity issue with a program and Windows 7. We need to find out what program is causing the issue though. We can do that through event viewer
    1. Click the start orb
    2. Select Control Panel
    3. System and Security
    4. Under Administrative Tools select the Event Viewer
    In the event viewer you will want to drill down into the Application and System logs and look for anything with a Red X that says Error. Identify the program causing the problem and then we can go from there.

  • How to install Oracle Grid Agent 11g into windows hosts ?

    Hi there, I was not able to deploy management agents into windows hosts machines !
    I followed steps below and I am getting these errors :
    On windows 2003 server, I have downloaded grid agent here :
    D:\grid\Windows_X64_Grid_Control_agent_download_11_1_0_1_0\windows_x64\agent
    I have setup.exe file ! When I double click it, I got this message :
    Only silent installation is supported search help.
    Well, I did a lot of times setup.exe -silent -responseFile <path>additional_response.rsp and the setup process tells me that I am not following the security procedures.
    I am newbie on Grid!
    I don´t want deploy agent using deployment wizard due to security resctrictions, they do not allow openssh servers on windows servers.
    Have you guys succeeded with this installation ? I mean, install fresh agent on single target windows server machine!
    I would appreciate any help.
    Tks.
    Edson - CLARO

    Edson,
    what I would do is go for the cloning option.
    On the OMS Server an Agent has been installed as part of the OMS installation.
    Stop this Agent
    AGENT_HOME/bin/emctl stop agent
    Create a zip file from the agent11g folder
    Copy it to a server where you want to install the Agent
    unzip the folder in the location where you want to install
    Restart the Agent you had stopped on your OMS server
    AGENT_HOME/bin/emctl start agent
    On the destination server
    Then from the AGENT_HOME/oui/bin
    runInstaller -clone -forceClone ORACLE_HOME=<full path of Agent Folder> ORACLE_HOME_NAME=OracleHomeAgent11g -noconfig -silent b_chainedInstall=false oracle.sysman.top.agent:s_installType=AGENT
    Then from AGENT_HOME/bin/agentca -f
    AGENT_HOME/root.sh (Under Unix this needs to be run as user root, not sure if this procedure is the same under Windows)
    This is based on the procedure described in MOS note : How to Clone a Management Agent And Known Issues [ID 579156.1] which referes to a 10.2.0 Agent, but I have been able to use this procedure under Windows with a 11.1 Agent as well.
    Goodluck

  • Nokia service layer host process has stopped worki...

    Hello,
    When i try to update my Nokia E90... i get the following error -
    Nokia service layer host process has stopped working
    I tried everything... Reinstalling pc suite and Software Updater, but still same problem
    Please help me
    Thanks

    i had exactly the same problem while updating using the latest NSU on Windows Vista with SP1.
    I guess there is some compatibility problems between the latest version of NSU and Vista.
    I tried with Windows XP SP2 and the latest version of NSU, i was able to update my E90 to the firmware version - 200.34.73
    In case, you are using XP, I would suggest you uninstall NSU as per the FAQ in Nokia web site and reinstall the latest version.
    Please let me know if this helps.
