[Flint]

A user on the Russian forum reported that on his machine TC produces Event log entries about crashes, though no real crashes occur.

I will check it - maybe TC is catching the exceptions, or it's some dll injected into TC which crashes.

I have analyzed it now - it's a strange crash in function CoUninitialize. The function is called at the end of the delete thread of the VistaDelete function.

Here is the stack trace:

I have used this function many times, but cannot find any crash reports in the MiniDump folder.

Could you ask the user what he is deleting when he gets this error, please?

Sorry my English...
I'm this user.
It's very difficult to catch this situation.
Does dump created with procdump with options -ma -e can help you?

[ghisler(Author)]

No, I already know where it happens - in Windows function CoUninitialize. I just don't know why. I have added some more code now to uninitialize the delete objects, maybe that helps.

Sorry, can't help you. All you can do is turn off VistaDelete (VistaDelete=0 in wincmd.ini). Maybe you have some third party trash can installed which doesn't like that function.
