    RPCRT4.dll crash


    The last couple of days I have been getting random crashes in RPCRT4.dll.

    The only thing i can think of that I have changed recently is disabling a few Adobe startup services.

    I have attached recent logs. Any help would be appreciated

    I can't see any .dmp files there....
    is there any BSOD?

    No BSOD just an appcrash, then Explorer seems to be really flaky after it. Should I post in another forum topic?

    RPCRT4.dll is the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) API, used by Windows applications for network and Internet communication.

    many of the errors from your log are also associated with dllhost.exe
    Code:
    Event[2870]:
      Log Name: Application
      Source: Application Error
      Date: 2013-05-08T10:49:54.000

    Dllhost.exe is used for hosting dlls, in this case rpcrt4.dll
    chances are this dll is the problem

    open command prompt, Start > Run or press Windows Key + R on Keyboard > type "cmd" w/o quotes > enter/ok
    type SFC /scannow
    let's see the results from there

    This PC only has windows defender on it. It is mainly a dev machine and is rarely networked. I did run a scan with house call after I started getting the error though and everything came up clean

    sorry, I edited my post above

    you can try Microsoft Security Essentials.
    There's no harm in being careful, isn't it

    rpcrt4.dll fix


    Hello,
    To all with the rpcrt4.dll error.
    My experience is that it originates in dotnet 4.0.
    I uninstalled it and installed it again and the problem was fixed.
    That's all!
