I have recurring occurrences of Internet Explorer (C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe) exiting with exit status 1 (0x1) in my Windows Eventlogs (event id 4689).
Whenever I google for the meaning of these exit codes I always just end up with this list (in different incarnations), where exit code 1 is said to mean "Incorrect function", also clarified with "Indicates that Action has attempted to execute non-recognized command in Windows command prompt cmd.exe".
This doesn't really make sense at all for Internet Explorer, so what does it really mean then?
Is there perhaps another list with exit status codes specific for event id 4689, with completely different meanings from that list that you always end up in on Google, or what am I missing here?
What version of Windows is this happening on? From what I've found this seems to be a Windows Server thing. I just want to verify before spewing ideas on how to fix it :) – DrZoo – 2016-09-12T19:41:06.370
Yes, Windows Server (2008 or 2012, not sure which in this specific case), that's correct. – QuestionOverflow – 2016-09-12T21:18:35.797
Cool, from what I found this seems to be the clearest at stating how to check whether your COM+ services are installed and running.
