If you are struggling with a runtime error when opening an application in Windows 7, then this tutorial is for you. This type of error can be caused by various issues, such as incomplete installation of a program, malware remnants, registry errors, or other complications. However, there is no need to worry as we have an easy solution to fix the runtime error.
Let’s start by right-clicking on the Start button and selecting “Run” from the menu. Type “MSConfig” and hit “OK”. Now, navigate to the “Services” tab and click on “Hide all Microsoft services”. Then, click “Disable all”, followed by “Apply” and “OK”. You may receive a system configuration notice that you must restart your computer to save these changes. Click “Exit without restart” for now.
Next, right-click on the taskbar at the bottom and select “Task Manager”. If your task manager view looks different, click on the “More details” button and navigate to the “Startup” tab. Disable any startup entries that are listed here by clicking on the name and selecting “Disable”.
Now, restart your computer and systematically re-enable startup programs as needed. For your computer’s protection, we recommend keeping any antivirus or anti-malware startup services or programs enabled.
By following these steps, you should be able to pinpoint exactly what caused the error and resolve it. We hope this brief tutorial helped you out. Good luck!
