    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.
    For me, ole32.dll is version 6.1.7601.17514 November 20, 2010

    How would I update that?
    Should be fine with the 2010 DLL (Windows 7 SP1 ole32.dll).


    I found a partial answer with ole32.dll and the Visual C++ Redistributable package not installed or not updated making the access violation on that DLL.

    Did you check if that was the case in your "Programs & Features"?

    If so update them as per links provided. You could update both x86 & x64 Packages.

    Should I install the 2012, and 2010 versions from the link?

    Yes do it..pick up both x86 & x64 packages.

    After installed 2010 & 2012 VC++Packs, you might have to quick check with Windows Update if there's newer versions.

    If you bump again to the access violation i'll give you the link to update the ole32.dll so we'll see if it works.... But as for now, try with those VC++.

    Take this package also: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition

    Ah okay. Also, should I uninstall the other versions? Why are there so many 2008 versions?

    If you already have installed SQL server 2005 compact edition v3.1, you don't need it, otherwise yes.

    2008 versions are coming along some applications and games and most of them have their own Ed 2008 as developers took the one they needed at the time, and you can let those versions. They do not take that much disk space. Also no need to unsinstall the other versions 2005.

    That could be a version added by a backdoor trojan and may not be executing from a Windows folder. I would run a virus scan and a MBAM scan.

    An x64 system will have one in SysWOW64 also. (Besides the mirror folders.) It may not show up in a search if the file is hidden/system.

    Forgot to mention: That message is indeed caused by a program but not necessarily OLE32. If Windows encounters an access violation, it BSODs. That could be a program attempting to pass parameters or data to another program.

    Those are the VC++ versions on my system. You should do fine either.

    For that time i'm off to bed.

    Take carwiz advice aswell if you want to check for a virus scan.
