My PC has been acting up lately, some core apps like rundllhost.exe notepad.exe crashes when opened.

My brother borrowed my PC for a day, i don't know what he did. Some apps are crashing. I can't even select properties for the apps.

Hello,

Fix with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

This fix was created for this user for use on that particular machine.

Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable.

​

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

• Right-click on
  
  icon and select
  
  Run as Administrator to start the tool.
  (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
• Press the Fix button just once and wait.
• If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
• When finishes FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.

How is the situation now?

 

[L'rae]

It's somehow fine now. I found out that if I click it the first time it will say "Application has stopped working" and when I click it again it works. It fixed the COM Surrogate for some things but not for the core apps like when you click the properties for "My Computer", "Network, etc. I also can't click on uninstall a program, can't change the screen resolution or personalize wallpapers. Everytime I click it, it just says "COM Surrogate has stopped working."
