Uninstall KB2879017 update.
Cumulative Security Update for IE 10 for Windows 8 x64 systems.
If you can't uninstall, restore to a previous point before the update.
Mark the update as hidden within Windows Update so it doesn't update again.
After update messages Error status 0xc000012f keeps coming up?

Different messages keep popping up on my hp windows 8 laptop after I got the update downloaded onto my computer. Different windows keep coming up all concerning system32\uxtheme.dll for example:
Dropbox.exe - Bad Image
C:\Windows\system32\uxtheme.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0xc000012f
it isn't just Dropbox.exe but also numerous different products and no matter how many times i press OK on many different programs more and more keep coming up it's never-ending how to i fix this please help.

My problem i think happend after updating my uTorrent and by accident agreed to install some aditional program that came with the update. I have tried to uninstall uTorrent but the problem persists.
