Description:
The protocol handler IEPH.HistoryHandler cannot be loaded. Error

I ran into a similar issue when booting my laptop:

It generated and error message on my desktop.

In my application log I also found:

-EventData
.NET Runtime version 1.1.4322.2407- : Fatal Execution Engine Error (0x7927f26e)


This appeared prior to the original error. I'm pretty sure it's a silent .NET install process that is failing.

I down loaded a dot net cleanup tool and deleted .NET v1.1 from my system and rebooted. No more error!

Hope my experience helps.
