Generic Host Process for Win32 Services has encountered a problem and needs to close Problem:
First, try to follow the instructions at Microsoft KB 931852 related to the Catroot2 folder. If it doesn't fix your problem, try the following recipes, too.Update from January 2007:
Start/Run: regedit (Registry editor) Navigate to -
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters and on the right side, double-click TransportBindName - press delete and give it an empty value. That will close port 445.
Also, Start/Run: regedit (Registry editor) Navigate to -
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OLE and change the value of EnableDCOM from Y to the value N - that will close port 135. If you know how, you may also disable NETbios. Restart the computer and the bug might be gone.Update: the most efficient way to fix the error in most cases is to install the update offered on this Microsoft page even though this page doesn't explicitly mention the error: choose the update for your correct operating system. It works for 50% of users. Are you among them? Let us know by clicking "fast comments" at the end of the article.
Another hope: Also, 25% of the users can fix the bug by: turning off automatic updates in the Control Panel; going to update.microsoft.com; manually installing the updates there; rebooting. You can turn on the automatic updates again and pray. If it doesn't fix the problem but you think you have a problem with svchost.exe and Windows Update - e.g. you're getting an access violation error and/or svchost.exe eats 100% of your CPU time - install KB 927891, to be released as a standard update in May or June 2007. If you add this patch, you should also manually update to the update client WSUS 3.0 and pray.
