Hi there,

Microsoft Security Essentials Windows cannot access the specified device path when I opened my laptop this morning. I didn’t open other process before this error. Can anyone tell me the reason why I have this error ?

Regards !

MsMpEng.exe –Application Error

The instruction at “0x5a4d684d” referenced memory at “0x00000000”. The memory could not “read”.

Click OK to terminate the program

I guess the error appeared right after you opened your laptop. If this is the case then there’s no need to be alarmed because it is only a minor error. The application somehow caught an error in the memory during the initialization and it causes the error to appear. If you haven’t seen this error before you will surely be alarmed.

Normally, after restarting the computer the error will disappear. Try it and see if it works. It is like a random error that programs encounter while they are loading into the memory. Maybe this is also because of other applications or tasks running in the background. Restarting the laptop should fix the problem. Also, you may see this error when shutting down your computer.

This is caused by a bug in a new anti malware engine issued, by which made systems running Microsoft Security Essentials corrupt. Do not get afraid of it. Disable or remove Microsoft Security Essentials to rectify the problem. If you do not want to do that, you may repair the software.
