    Hi.

    Recently upgraded to Windows 11. Have no other issues with it (yet), but Task Manager is crashing a lot.


    Event Viewer:

    Faulting application name: Taskmgr.exe, version: 10.0.22000.65, time stamp: 0x7bf3bc47

    Faulting module name: DUI70.dll, version: 10.0.22000.1, time stamp: 0x5213495d

    Exception code: 0xc0000005

    Fault offset: 0x000000000001fd66

    Faulting process id: 0x4988

    Faulting application start time: 0x01d7bd5506aa91ea

    Faulting application path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Taskmgr.exe

    Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\DUI70.dll

    Report Id: bf3a99bf-d533-4e3d-963e-b0e4c6c7fff4

    Faulting package full name:

    Faulting package-relative application ID:



    Not sure if it's just me or widespread or how to fix it. Ideas?

    Thanks!

    1. From a Command Prompt, run Chkdsk C:
    If you get errors, then run Chkdsk C: /F
    Note: This usually requires a reboot.
    2. From a Command Prompt, run DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
    3.. Run SFC /Scannow

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

    sfc /scannow

    Chkdsk C:

    No issues were found.

    What computer, which processor, how much RAM, which graphics card, whether a clean installation or through an upgrade from a previous version of Windows?
    Has any "special chemistry" been used to disable some features, or has something been uninstalled at all?

    AMD Ryzen 3600XT, 16GB RAM, GTX 1070. Upgraded with Microsoft's tool. I had zero issues with Windows 10 and just ran the Microsoft's tool to upgrade.

    Everything should fit and should work.
    I can't recommend anything other than trying to reinstall the video card driver and related.

    You ' updowngraded ' from win 10 to win 10.5 and now the taskmanager doesnt work ?

    = Something on win 10 doesnt work on win 10,5 = what is the difference ? = Drivers and a few new files = Wipe it and do a clean install ? ........ and see if it works = If its your setup and / or the drivers ? ......... or your computer ?

    I’m not up for a clean install just because the Task Manager crashes. There’s a high chance that it’s a bug of Windows 11 or some other software or drivers aren’t working quite right yet.

    Honestly, don't believe it. I've had it for almost 5 months on a very old computer (manufactured and also bought in 2006) and I've never had anything like it.
    Even now I am in this ancient pc and reading posts, no problems and I have not used any special chemistry.

    If you realy want to know kill it , then put win 10.5 in ....... and see if it goes in or not ? Then if it doesnt go in you ( might ) know why .......... and can put the backup in that you made before you experimented and youve lost nothing .

    For me ......... when i have a problem and i dont know what it is .......... i dont know what it is ? Or how big / small it is ? Or what else its effecting ? Or what migjht / not happen next ? Or if my computer is ' safe ' ?

    I'm having the same problem, running the Windows 11 Dev Build 22478.1021. To investigate further into the problem, can you list out all of the programs you installed?
