Hello All,
I have an app that is running throughout my company with one
exception.

Recently, one employee started throwing exception 0xC0000005 on
startup. Specifically, it's crashing out during the load process.

In testing I compiled a simple "Hello World" app in C#. Even that app
fails to load.

Since the app doesn't even load, I can't use the EventLog or
Application's log to trap any errors.

I'm not very familiar with the .NET debugging apps.

Can someone give suggestion on how to begin troubleshooting this?

Thanks,
-tomas

If you get this Access Violation running a simple console application, I would suggest you
to re-install the run time.

Willy.

IIRC, that is the same error you will get if the system does not have the
..NET Framework installed on it.

Doh!!
I was hoping that it wouldn't come to that.
Do I need to un-install the run time first? Or will dotnetfx prompt to
"repair" the current installation?

Thanks,

This user has been running my app for almost a year now.
I'll try the re-install mentioned in the other reply and see if that
helps.

..NET Installer fails. Can't re-install the Framework.
Somethings amiss......
