Alright when ever I try to open any type of internet browser or an .iso it always gives me that error also when i try to press on different option on the windows firewall it does not do anything. Oh and when i try to run a antivirus it shows the same error.

"(Name of .exe - Application Error)"

The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005). Click OK to close the application.

This start automatically on start up and i have to press ok like 3-5 times also there's the Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explore 10 for Windows 7 Service Pack 1 for x64-based Systems (KB28627772)  When ever i try to update it it always fail no matter what and i cant download the service pack 2 because of pack 1.

Please help me to fix this

    I know it's been a while, but what if my path is \windows\system32\winload.efi but I'm still having the same issue of the error 0xc0000005? Also, I could not find the security update KB2859537 in installed updates to delete

    I tried this but I do not have the KB2859537 update. I am getting the 0xc0000005 error when I try to use Roxio's Creator NXT3. Help!

    OK, I think this will fix it.

    First of all, if your System Restore is working then just use that to go back to before the recent updates, if it's not working then try this.

    1. Disconnect from the internet  
    2. Open Control Panel
    3. Open Program & Features
    4. Click "View installed updates" on the left-hand side
    5. Find "Security update for Microsoft Windows (KB2859537)" under the Microsoft Windows section
    6. Uninstall that update and restart you PC (may take a very-VERY long time to configure)
    7. Go to Windows Updates and hide  (KB2859537)
    8. Reconnect to the internet
    9. Fix your System Restore feature; You might have to remove a fake C: drive and enable System Restore on the correct Windows drive.

    Thanks!!!

    This work for me!

    This sooo just saved me.  5 hours trying to  figure out why an APP on our Terminal Server kept crashign this fixed it.!!!!! YAY

    Nice, although that was my first fix but it turned out to only be a temporary fix.  You will need to do the full fix found on the first page of this thread.
