It is udate.exe that is in the task bar flasing orange. It is a trading
platform that I use. Some programs have to be allowed to run by User Account
Control for some reason, is there a way to disable this feature? Is this a
part of the Windows Defender? It is very annoying. This particular program
that I am trying to launch doesn't even show a security icon on top of the
desktop icon like most do that require permission to run. I am baffled.
The screen that comes up after it crashes tells me to try turning
of memory cacheing and shadowing (I think it's memory) but to be honest with
you, I am afraid to mess around with the bios settings, I am not an expert in
that area at all. I wanted to get some feedback before I attempted to try it.
Thanks.
The name of the particular program that I launch when it crashes
is, Dealbook 360, also Your Uninstaller wiil cause it to do the same thing.
Once it crashes and I go through the entire rebooting process, the programs
launch fine, they don't crash, it is only when the computer has been in sleep
mode for a length of time, (usually at least an hour). Thanks for the reply,
look forward to getting this resolved. It is so frustrating.
