Atbroker.exe "application failed to initialize properly" on remote desktop to vista

[markm75]

I get this error message when trying to connect to my remote vista RTM
(Ultimate) machine.. It happens at random.. the only fix is to
remotely reboot the machine via a "shutdown" command.

It says to click ok to terminate the application, that only results in
a blank screen.

Anyone found a solution as of yet?

Actually there is an entry in the event viewer:

Faulting application atbroker.exe, version 6.0.6000.16386, time stamp
0x4549b800, faulting module USER32.dll, version 6.0.6000.16386, time
stamp 0x4549d372, exception code 0xc0000142, fault offset
0x0000000000001d28, process id 0xeb8, application start time
0x01c749630f7606db.


Event ID 1000 , Application Error...


No real solutions here either:

Hi all.

a workaround for this without having to re-boot the machine is:

Ctrl+Alt+End, and select "log off" or "cancel log-off" if there's any prompting.
