These processes use RAM for a whole variety of different things, so the RAM offered is not one huge blob of necessarily contiguous amorphous mass, but rather several separate allocations of different parts of the RAM, each designed to be put to use in different ways.
The 'heap' is one part of that - one specific piece of RAM allocated for use in a few specific places [the 'stack' is another such part] okay, so that's all very oversimplified and a bit handwavy in places but maybe you sort of understand! A 'heap' corruption occurs when a program mishandles the allocation of heap it is given and the operating system terminates it for abuse [again, all a bit handwavy]. Perhaps, for example, the operating system allocates explorer. So eventually it runs out of its MB quota and the operating system terminates the process if it didn't it could potentially eat up all the free memory on the entire system and crash the whole computer What's curious here is that this is usually a software bug - explorer.
In essence, the problem lies in a software bug in explorer. So we contact the developers, they fixed their code and the problem is fixed. Except that isn't the case here, because what's usually a home and dry case of a software bug in one particular piece of software is instead affecting many. This problem is clearly coming from some sort of system level component. Which is a much rarer and more challenging problem.
In fact, I was in two minds about taking on this case at all. This is going to have no easy resolution - if we're able to find one at all. I've been tossing up possibilities and scenarios in my head already, and I must say that it's going most likely to be a case more of instinct than hard procedure. Wait until explorer. You must not yet close the program!
You can now close explorer. Either way, upload the compressed file to a file sharing website, e. OneDrive, GoogleDrive, Dropbox, etc. Whether or not this will help is uncertain, but it's the best shot we've got of a clear diagnosis.
It's just not a fantastically great shot. Finally, please be careful in future of using any program to remove Windows Updates.
They're so deeply embedded into the system that as one of the Windows Update team here I see nothing but disaster and tears with their use. They're forever going wrong and breaking systems. Usually there's no resolution in sight and only a reinstall will fix it I'll do my best but the prospect isn't fantastically positive.
Otherwise I'll try my best but can offer very few promises of success. Hey Richard, I really appreciate you taking the time to try and help me. If you ever feel like my case is hopeless and I need to resort to the In-Place upgrade, just let me know. United States English. Ask a question. Quick access. Search related threads.
