In recent insider builds, lots of desktop apps crashes upon saving a file or browse for a file. The error is something as below
Unhandled exception at 0x00007FFA166E134D (shell32.dll) in Xamarin Workbooks.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFF8B.
Now I am using the Build 15063.14 with latest updates. This is really really frustrating as I cannot attach a file as attachment in outlook.com with Google Chrome or save a workbook in Xamarin Workbooks.
This error happens on both my machines which both run insider builds
Sounds like a bug in Xamarin. Have you tried uninstalling it? – DavidPostill – 2017-04-06T12:43:49.037
the tool accesses a NULL pointer. this is a bug in tools. report it to developers. – magicandre1981 – 2017-04-06T16:12:17.320
No, it's not an issue with Xamarin since Chrome had the same issue - crash when browse file / save file, other apps too. I am pretty sure it's a bug in the system level. – imgen – 2017-04-07T23:52:09.387
create crash dumps of Windows inbox tools (notepad.exe) if it has the same issue and share the dmp: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb513638(VS.85).aspx. Set DumpType to 2 to get a full dmp
– magicandre1981 – 2017-04-08T07:02:00.843Yup, notepad.exe has the same issue – imgen – 2017-04-10T08:54:03.037
@magicandre1981 I collected the dump, what else? – imgen – 2017-04-10T09:04:48.923
zip the dmp, upload the zip to OneDrive, create a share link and post the share link here. I'll look at the dump and also ask my Microsoft contacts for help. – magicandre1981 – 2017-04-10T16:01:03.247
@magicandre1981, the link is https://1drv.ms/u/s%21Au3MY0PcVMtTjt4XyF0ocQnpAa5q7w thanks
– imgen – 2017-04-12T12:40:03.317yesterday there was an update to 15063.138. do you see the crashes here, too? also generate a FULL dump, not a minidump. create a DWORD DumpType and set this to 2. – magicandre1981 – 2017-04-12T13:45:38.010
I did as told, this is the link of the dump file https://1drv.ms/u/s%21Au3MY0PcVMtTjt4YyK0V5Qs1rG3OOQ
– imgen – 2017-04-13T23:30:22.773the dump shows a memory corruption for shell32.dll. use first chkdsk to look if your NTFS is damaged, next run DISM to look for damaged system files. Have you installed the last update to update to 15063.138?
– magicandre1981 – 2017-04-14T07:11:28.200do you also see the crash if you disable Bins ( C:\Program Files\1UPIndustries\Bins\v1.1.0.784\TaskbarDockAppIntegration64.dll)? – magicandre1981 – 2017-04-14T07:17:10.340
It cannot be with disk damage because I had this issue with both my machines. It could be Bins though. I'll see whether it is Bins that is causing this issue – imgen – 2017-04-15T04:01:13.933
Indeed it was Bins that is causing this issue. I'll uninstall it. Thanks for the help. – imgen – 2017-04-15T04:03:14.193
