Starting yesterday, whenever I click on a link on my computer, weather on the
desktop, start menu or shortcut bar, I get the error "Extension CLSID
Verification Host has stopped working" and the program I was trying to start
does not work. I have not installed any new software and have my anti virus
and spyware up to date.
Anyone know what this is and how to fix it?
Thanks!
Do you have the QTTabBar?
If so, have a look at these threads;
That's all I could really come up with at the moment.
I also have the same problem and waiting for anyone to give solution.
And the message you're responding to at TechArena is so old (Jan 17, 2008)
that it does not appear on Microsoft's news servers, or most other real news
servers. So, without logging on to TechArena, which few of us are likely to
do, we have no idea what you're talking about. Why don't you start over and
tell your own story, referring to this Google Groups link if you really
think you can't explain it as well as the other(s) did.
I know the DEP ( Data Execution Prevention ) is not letting this estension to work. Does any one know how to deactivate the DEP on this program?
That's probably not a good plan. The thing that you say is crashing is
designed to prevent you from using bad software that would lead to worse
crashes.
What extension specifically isn't working? Have you talked to the
developers of that extension to ask them to fix their extension?
The "verification host" is used to host untrusted extensions. It itself is
not a problem: it's just isolating out things that *can* be problems so that
rogue software doesn't cripple your system.
Heres what to do to fix this issue. Copy this exe >> verclsid.exe
Now go to the start button in the lower left corner. Click on it and
type in the window regedit. When regedit appears click on it. When the
Windows permission window appears click continue. Now, click on edit and
then find. Paste the verclsid.exe in the window. Besure that everything
including "whole strings" is checked marked. Now click find next. This
will take about a minute to find the verclsid.exe file. It will appear
in the right window. When it finds it delete it. Another window will
appear basically asking you if you are sure if you want to delete it.
Click ok. Reboot your computer and this will fix it. Now if you click on
a favorite after the reboot and the allow window appears besure to check
mark never ask again and allow it. Thats all...all fixed.
