window 7

Question

when i enter to the login user and opened any application this one thing pops up with "application name.exe-Bad Image" with a message of

"c:windows\system32\extensionHookUmode.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."

What is the solution for this error, any software or steps is there to rectify this problem?

Answer 1

Please post a screenshot of the error message. For directions, see https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/feedback/forum/fdbk_commsite-fdbk_getstart/how-to-include-a-screenshot-in-your-post/2594b08e-32a3-476a-85a6-b021181be7e4

I don't understand your example. What does the processes tab of Task Manager have to do with your problem?

If you turn off your computer, wait a few seconds, and turn it on, do you see the logon screen with at least one user icon, like this:

Does the error message appear at this point?

Assuming that you see the logon screen, does the error message appear when you click one of the user icons and supply the password (if necessary)?

Or do you get to your Desktop without seeing the error message, but the error message appears when you start ANY application program?

What happened to your computer shortly before this problem started? For example, did you install or uninstall any software? Were you infected by malware? Did you remove malware? Please give details.

Answer 2

NO, i am not intended to install an program, it happens for all programs, it is poping up for every small programs .

For example: In a windows task manager under processes tab all programs give this error

Answer 3

Sounds as if you're attempting to install an application intended for Windows 10 (or 8.1) in a Windows 7 system.

If you had provided the name of the application (rather than "application name.exe"), I could be more specific, but it seems that extensionHookUmode.dll is related to software from Actions Microelectronics (https://www.actions-micro.com/). 

The solution is to uninstall the software and replace it, if possible, with a Windows 7 version.
