software exception 0xc000070a
« on: May 12, 2015, 08:09:13 AM »
received "unknown software exception 0xc000070a occurred in application at location 0x7741ca6d" at bootup this morning. Avast GUI 'says' all is fine, but it's concerning to get this message. I saw 2 posts from users with this same problem but didn't see a resolution. Someone did suggest to do a Repair thru Control Panel and if that doesn't work, then do a clean install. Wanted to find out more information before doing this.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Have you tried another reboot to see if the same happens again?

You also have an outdated Malwarebytes, latest is 2.1.6.1022 :)

Thanks CraigB. I've not yet done another reboot, but will shortly and reply with results. Yes, Malwarebytes is outdated. I update when I run my weekly scan  ;) Off to reboot and then will post results.
