werfault.exe and wermgr.exe causing 100% CPU

does anyone experiencing the same problem?

Vista Business and Office 2007... After installed the updates on Office
2007 outlook stop working when I'm trying to send an email and close by
itself + the CPU always stay at 100% use and it's a dual core...

I verified in the taks manager and found the werfault.exe and wermgr.exe
working and causing the 100% CPU.

I stopped the Windows Error Reporting services and still doing the same
thing...

I did a virus scan and spyware scan but it's not that...

Any idea?

Anyway, if it happens to someone I only had to go under help in outlook and
run the office diagnostics

its part of Vista, to sends any errors you have on your PC to Windows... you can allow or deny it, shouldn't make a difference as discuss here - Werfault.exe and Wermgr.exe ?

am also having the same problem with Werfault.exe
and have tried to remedy the problem by disabling the process and
reducing its priority but to no avail!:mad: I am hoping that someone
from the forum may come up with a solution as at the moment I am having
to keep TaskManager open and then disable werfault whenever i see the
process starting!

I have just started having the same problem!!?? i've stopped the WerFault.exe
process within the taskmanager but I have to keep doing it which is annoying
to say the least. Should I delete the program from its location? It is in
windows\system32\

I'm finding issues with wermgr in terms of my virus blocker - it appears that the program is trying to install, and Webroot is stopping it. I have to see it blocked virtually the entire time I'm on my PC. Comes up approx every 10 mins. I'm running Windows 7.

From what I'm seeing there is no way to get rid of this... and I should make sure I dont let it install is that correct?

I'm having this same problem with Webroot, however, I am running Windows Vista. Have you figured out how to correct it? Any help would be wonderful.

100% CPU utilisation happened to me after installing PC Tools on Vista. I don’t know why, but I fixed it by disabling the service. Not elegant, but effective.

To disable the Windows Error Reporting Service (WerSvc) using control panel:

1. Open control panel.
2. Select "System & Maintenance"
3. Select "Administrative Tools"
4. Select "Services"
5. Right-Click "Windows Error Reporting Service"
6. Select "Properties"
7. In the "Service Status" Section Click [Stop]
8. Set "Startup type:" to "Manual" or if this is started by another application select "Disabled"
9. Save and close the dialog boxes.

CPU utilisation returned to normal immediately.

Thanks, I'll try it! Can't hurt anyway!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I shut off the Windows Problem Reporting and my processer immediately went blessedly silent and everything runs like it's a brand new computer!

I have disabled the service via : Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services, right clicking on Windows Error Reporting and changed Startup Type on the General Tab to Disabled.

However, it still runs when I reboot the system and shows up in Task Manager. Checking back to Services it is still set to Disabled.

So how do I really disable werfault.exe?

(PS - I don't have "System & Maintenance" on my version of Vista, that's why I did this via Administrative Tools)

Ok read through what the solutions said at the bottom and basically what that did was turn off your windows error reporting. Now here is another solution that worked for me, go to your run box type in msconfig, hit enter, click yes if it's not ran as administrator, click SERVICES tab, look at the bottom of the box and check the box that says Hide all Microsoft Services, then disable all, then check your Virus Protection Services and your Display Driver Services, and your Audio driver services, next click on STARTUP then disable all, then check your virus protection, Java, Synaptics, and NVIDIA or Radeon whichever display driver you may have, click ok or apply, and restart computer, once windows has come back up, shut the computer down for 10 seconds and turn it back on. see if you still get the error. I will continue doing research on what might causing the Wermgr error. hope this helps.

also i would like to throw in there that I updated this computers windows to every possible update there is, I uninstalled any unnecessary tool bar that is in your Control Panel and Uninstall Programs, also I went into Firefox and uninstalled any of those Add Ons that didn't need to be in there. so far, this computer has not received anymore errors about the wermgr.exe also I did go into Color Management for this computer was having some issues with a vertical line going up and down across it, and changing the performance of the computer, and including, changing the Color Management to the default driver, and also uninstalling unnecessary programs seems to have solved a lot of issues, also suggest, that you do a disk clean up, and disk defragment, and then hit F8 when your computer is booting up, go into Safe Mode with Networking and download Malware Anti Malwarebytes, update the definitions, then run a virus scan, then when that's done, log back into regular windows, and update your virus definitions and run another virus scan with some real virus protection. So far so good on this persons computer. thought maybe this information would be helpful to you all. hope it helps and happy new year.
