Unhandled exception in Repair_Windows.exe (SOLVED)

[Andrew Morton]

Hi,

I'm trying to use Tweaking.com - Windows Repair on my computer to see if it is something I would use to fix other people's computers. However, I cannot get any of its parts to run except for the registry backup. For example, if I try to open the Pre-Scan, I get "Tweaking.com - Windows Repair has stopped working." and then (from allowing it to be debugged using VS2015):

Unhandled exception at 0x049BBBE8 in Repair_Windows.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation executing location 0x049BBBE8.

This happens in both normal and safe mode (with networking) on W7x64 Pro, Intel i7 920.

In the Application event log I see:
Faulting application name: Repair_Windows.exe, version: 3.7.0.4, time stamp: 0x568b2851
Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x049bbbe8
Faulting process id: 0xfd4
Faulting application start time: 0x01d14bc72a208fdf
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Tweaking.com\Windows Repair (All in One)\Repair_Windows.exe
Faulting module path: unknown

Is there anything I should try, or more information you would like?

That is because DEp is set to always on, there was a bug with the resizer control if DEP was set to not allow anything out and it would cause the crash. Update to v3.8.0, I replaced the resizer control and it no longer crashes with DEP

Thank you, Shane. It now works as expected on my system.
