an attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B.
it's popped up a few times. i wasn't trying to load a program. only thing running on my machine was chrome. the error in event viewer says the source of the error was ChkUpd. any ideas?
Hello @smoothnobody,
Does it show in Startup tab of msconfig, if it does, disable it, and Restart.
I hope this helps!
there is no mention of it being startup related. everything in msconfig/startup is disabled.
It could be launched by a scheduled task created by a program you've installed.
One way to check if chkupd.exe exists there is to use this freeware program that lists all tasks liinearly, and provides a useful search:
Another approach is to use a fast indexing search tool such as
Everything by voidtools
Locate32
Ultrasearch
- let it index your PC then search for chkupd
