Programs Crash, error: Fault module kernelbase.dll . Application crash

I have several programs that seems to be in some conflict with kernelbase.dll. They crash the moment I start them and kernelbase.dll is the fault module.

I've tried installing windows twice but the problem persist.

I've tried running in 'clean boot'.

I've tried 'Windows Resource Protection'

I've tried running the program in different compatability states.

Nothing helps. Any ideas?

The error message is pasted below:

I guess you have answered it yourself. User Profile corruption.

Log in as a different User. rename the problem profile. Log in as the original user again. A new profile will get created. If the crash is gone, copy your over your user data from the corrupted one.

If it does not solve the issue. Repeat steps with default folder too. This is the template profile, when creating new profiles.

    I'm seeing this all over the internet on all kinds of apps and no solution for any of them.

    I had the same problem with a custom VB.Net application, framework 2 running on Windows 2008 x64.  Compiling for x64, x86, or Any CPU didn't work, neither did re-adding the Excel COM object or other resources or setting the compatibility mode, or any of another half dozen things I tried.

    Finally, I set the .exe file properties to "Run as Administrator" and wallah - everything runs great!  I suspect there are embedded security or other settings that are the ultimate cause.

    PowerPoint 2007 on Win7 was the first culprit. Then uninstalled and did a clean install of Office 2010, same issue. Can login to a different profile (enabled Administrator account) and it works. Log back into my own profile and even launching in Administrator mode fails. Still crashes.
