0xc0000142: STATUS_DLL_INIT_FAILED
MessageText:
{DLL Initialization Failed}
Initialization of the dynamic link library %s failed. The process is
terminating abnormally.
If you can, run system file checker ("sfc /scannow").
Scan your system for spyware/malware/viruses.
If the above doesn't work:
Does the problem occur for all users?
What does the event log say about the error? (there will be an entry under system).
Get Depends (
http://www.dependencywalker.com/) and use it to open up cmd.exe.
Go to Profile->Start Profiling-> Ok. This will write a troubleshooting log in the
bottom frame that might tell us what's going on.
Is there a registry key called:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\cmd.exe\
?
