I installed kaspersky endpoint security in vista .. I get this error 0x800106ba at startup…
Application failed to initialize:0x800106ba. A Problem caused this program’s service to stop. To start the service, restart your computer or search Help and Support for how to start service manually.
How to remove 0x800106ba error and fix my vista?
Solution
(Note:Above scenario is my own one and the below is the solutions I found out)
0x800106ba error in vista upon installing third party security solution with antivirus is caused due to partial disabling of windows defender or even the conflict with the newly installed antivirus/anti spam solution..
Defender should be disabled upon installing antivirus/antispam solutions.. But defender finds some difficulties in doing so and gets errors like this…..
So if this 0x800106ba error is occurred due to installation of another antivirus/antispam guard. just disable the windows defender fully…
To bypass and add the registry value follow the below, steps
Download pstools (PSTools.zip) from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896649.aspx
Then extract PSTools.zip it in to a folder.. open a command prompt run as administrator
(1)Then change directory to the location where you have extracted the PSTools.zip
(Mine it is C:\Users\araa\Desktop\PSTools )
(2) open registry editor with psexec with following parameters.. -s -i -d
The command should be psexec -s -i -d regedit
Then registry editor will be opened and navigate to this path
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender]
Double click on REG_DWORD “DisableAntiSpyware” and make that value to 1.
