Key notes
Microsoft released the latest security patches in the notoriousPatch Tuesday event.
And while delivering a lot of fixes including no less than139 CVEs, the KB’s also came with some known issues but also some unknown ones.
WhileKB4565483 may conflict with some modems, KB4565503 and KB4565627 may block Electron built apps likeAndroid Messages, Authy Desktop,WhatsApp,Slack,TwitchforWindows 10v2004.
How do KB4565503 and KB4565627 are blocking apps on Windows 10?
A usercomplains on Redditthat every time he tries to start Electron built apps, he receives the error messageTheapplicationwas unable to start correctly (0xc0000005). Click OK to close theapplication.
The issue is showing on his Dell XPS 8500 computer but not on his other Dell OptiPlex 390 MT, the difference being that the latter is running a Release Preview Windows 10 build.
The only difference I can figure between the 2, besides channel, is that the 1st machine uses Known Folder Redirect (KFR) while the 2nd one doesn’t. It seems Windows is not handling the KFR use case very well.
He also specifies thathe performed anSFC scanwithout any results.
How can I fix error code 0xc0000005?
As the issue started manifesting after installing the new KB4565503 and KB4565627, Microsoft didn’t react yet with an answer to this problem.
However, we have previously encountered and fixThe application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005)error.
