SyncToy won't load |
|
|
Every time I try to start SyncToy, I get a "common language debugging
services" message, "application has generated an exception that could not be
handled. process id=0xc50 (3152), thread id=0x504 (1284)." I have searched
the msft database for these error codes, but I get no response.
Does anyone have any ideas?
On my home computer, this program works well. |

Others of us have that same problem. See (synctoy won't run) thread. It
seems there are not enough of us to warrant them trying for a fix.
I just uninstalled the program. |

Hello Bart,
See if this helps from a similar post under "SyncToy Won't Run"
Strong et al,
Nice call Strong! This is reproducible. I can recreate the exception by
disabling performance counters for PerfProc.dll. Enabling that perf counter
enables SyncToy to run.
We will take a look at alternative means of determining whether SyncToy is
already running for possible inclusion in a future release.
For those interested, the registry entry for PerfProc is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\PerfProc\Performance
As you might expect, the Disable Performance Counteres REG_DWORD = 0 for not
disabled and = 1 for disabled. |

I just downloaded SyncToy and encountered this same problem, however the
"fix" made no difference.
Are there any other knwon causes?

Update - the PerfStringBackup.ini fix from the other thread did work.
(the correct file was already on the PC, just running lodctr was enough)

Apparently there is no "1 solution fits all" for this problem. I also have
the PerfStrignBackup.ini file on a notebook that SyncToy won't run on. I
tried running lodctr from the System32 Windows directory where it is located
and it didn't make a bit of difference. I had also tried enabling performance
counters in the registry, but it didn't help either.

| Just this morning I uninstalled .Net Framework 1.1 and .Net Framework hotfix KB886903. Presto, Synctoy is back in action. |
