createprocess failed code 740 Error Fix
CreateProcess Failed: Code 740 is an error that’s caused by Windows being unable to properly load up the permissions that your PC requires to run. If this error is showing on your PC, it means that you don’t have the correct “rights” to perform the operation, and needs to be resolved by first ensuring that you can repair the various problems that your PC may have, as well as then cleaning out any of the errors that will prevent the software from running correctly.
What Causes This Error?
The UAC (User Account Control) of Windows will be corrupted / damaged. This is what Vista & Windows 7 use to help make Windows run with all the administrator options that are required to run, and is continually causing a huge number of errors that will prevent the application from loading up.
How To Fix CreateProcess Failed; Code 740 Errors
Step 1 – Disable The UAC Of Windows Vista / 7
VISTA
Open up Control Panel, and type in “UAC” into the search box. You’ll see a link for “Turn User Account Control (UAC) on or off”:
On the next screen you should uncheck the box for “Use User Account Control (UAC)”, and then click on the OK button.
You’ll need to reboot your computer before the changes take effect, but you should be all done with annoying prompts.
WINDOWS 7
Windows 7 makes it much easier to deal with UAC settings, and in fact you don’t have to completely disable UAC if you don’t want to. Just type UAC into the start menu or Control Panel search box.
You can simply drag the slider up or down, depending on how often you want to be alerted.
Step 2 – Clean Out The Registry Of Your PC
One of the biggest causes of this error is that the “registry” of your system will become damaged & unreadable. The problem is that the registry database of Windows is a large database of settings which Windows uses to help it load up the likes of your most recent emails, desktop wallpaper and even your passwords… however, it’s also one of the biggest causes of problems for the Windows system. The issue is that your PC will continually damage this database, causing a huge number of problems to form on your PC.
We recommend using a program called RegAce System Suite to fix the registry errors that your PC may have. You can use this tool by downloading it to your computer, installing it and then letting it repair the various problems that Windows may have inside.
