I see that people have had problems with Nero Scout for years, and nothing has changed at Nero!!
I too had the pop-up error messages that "NMindexStoreSvr.exe caused a problem and needed to close", so I changed the file .exe to another extension. Although this stopped the pop-up error messages, I now see a string of System Errors in the Event Viewer that say:
Unable to start a DCOM Server: {25E8A7CA-5874-4F85-BC00-35210131C444}. The error:
"The system cannot find the file specified. "
Happened while starting this command:
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Ahead\Lib\NMIndexStoreSvr.exe" -Embedding
So, I then tried the suggestion to disable the .dll by running:
regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Ahead\Lib\MediaLibraryNSE.dll"
but the System errors still are coming in.
Something is trying to start the NMindexStoreSvr - EVERY 20 SECONDS - and I have hundreds of these error messages in the Event Viewer.
I also see in my Services list, a NMIndexingService that shows a Manual start. I changed that to 'disable', but the errors continue.
Does anybody know what is trying to start the NMIndexStoreSvr every 20 seconds, and how do I make it STOP? Is it the NMIndexingService?
I do see some entries in the registry regarding the .exe.....
