Programs Wont Open Windows 10
Reporting: Common Programs Won't Open On My Windows 10 - 0xc0000005 This post has been flagged and will be reviewed by our staff. Thank you for helping us maintain CNET's great community.
I just recently (less than a week) built a new computer and installed windows 10. I got everything up and running smoothly and I came home today and 2 apps wouldn't launch. AVG and ASUS Aura. (Could be others I didn't catch) I tried many 'fixes' I found online with nothing helping. When you click on the shortcut, Taskbar shortcut or the direct .exe the cursor spins for a split second then nothing. In the task manager window I see that both of these are running in the background now but no window pops up to be able to use the program. I did an entire clean install with no luck. Both programs fail even thought they worked fine yesterday and before that
My computer has the following hardware:
Mobo: Asus X99-A II
CPU: i7-5820k
RAM: 32GB Trident Z 3200
Graphics: GeForce 1070 Founders Edition
Software:
Running Windows 10 version 1511
Asus Aura is the latest version (also tried previous version) Latest ran fine the other day with no issues.
AVG is also latest version and ran fine the other day with no issues.
Not sure if other programs have an issue as I already completely installed windows thinking it would fix it but didn't work. I also did a clean boot and no fix. Since I did a clean install there was hardly any apps needed to be disabled but did anyway.
Not sure where to go next.
Thanks for any help.
On a desktop PC, it’s fairly easy to move from one app to another. Because they’re all in windows on your desktop, you just click the app you want: It pops to the forefront, ready for work. On a tablet, apps and programs hog the entire screen when running, making it difficult to switch between them.
Whether you’re running Windows 10 on a PC, laptop, or tablet, you can bring any missing app to the forefront by following these two quick steps:
Programs Wont Open Windows 10 In Safe Mode
Click or tap the Task View button.
The screen clears, and Windows displays miniature views of your open apps and programs, shown here.
Click the Task View button to see thumbnail views of each of your currently running apps and programs.Tap or click any thumbnail to return the app or program to full size.
These three tips can help you keep track of your running apps as well as close down the ones you no longer want open:
Currently running apps and programs also appear as icons on the taskbar, the narrow strip along the bottom of the screen.
To close an unwanted app shown in thumbnail view, click or tap the X in its upper right corner (shown here). With a mouse, you can also right-click the app’s thumbnail, and choose Close from the pop-up menu.
After you close an app, the miniature views of the other running apps remain onscreen, letting you either switch to them or close them. Or, to leave the Task View mode, click or tap the desktop.
