    Access violation error happening everyday, ole32.dll


    Hello SevenForums community,

    After hours of researching through Google, I could not find a solution for my constant problem that has been happening for the past month and so. Every night, this error would pop up while I'm watching a video, editing a video, on Skype, etc. I have updated all of my drivers (or, at least that what Windows and Gateway say), and rebooting several times. Can someone help me with this problem?

    Can you post any relevant event logs so we can see any relevant error messages?. It appears from researching it via google; that it is pointing to one or more programs; and im thinking its one that did not originally come with windows and that would be skype. So; try uninstalling skype completely, rebooting, reinstalling it and report back and we can go from there if the issue is not solved.

    Welcome to Sevenforums,

    Looks it is an application that's relies on some COM+ components that need to be registered in the Microsoft Component Services (COM+).

    You can have a look in Control panel => Administrative tools => Component Services.

    See there if some applications have to be registred, it will normally be automatically recognized once you open the Component Services .

    In start up menu you use the search bar, type eventvwr.msc and right click to run as administrator the tool.

    Try to located the errors in Events Viewer, any related to skype or ole32.dll.

    I just got the error a minute ago, but no events popped up in the viewer.
    Maybe it's my browser?

    Have you try what forum member matts6887 was suggesting about reinstall Skype?

    Could be also corrupted ole32.dll. Try to SFC /SCANNOW at startup.

    Skype was not the culprit, error still showed up when Skype was uninstalled.
    Just tried the scan command, Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

    So guess that's the ole32.dll that could need to be updated.

    Which version have you got in folder C:\Windows\System32...(right-click properties on ole32.dll)?

    Mine is: v6.1.7601.21982 dated: April 28, 2012



    Have you any of the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Packages installed ? Could be that also!

    Check in the Control Panel => Programs & Features.

    If NO, try to install them with the link above.

    How would I update that?
