What are WSUtil.exe Error Messages?


WSUtil.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when WSUtil.exe is attempted to be loaded either when Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate.

In most cases, WSUtil.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these WSUtil.exe error messages mean that Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common WSUtil.exe errors include:

  • WSUtil.exe - Bad Image.
  • WSUtil.exe Application Error.
  • WSUtil.exe could not be found.
  • WSUtil.exe could not be installed.
  • WSUtil.exe could not be launched. Class not registered.
  • WSUtil.exe could not be started.
  • WSUtil.exe failed to initialize properly.
  • WSUtil.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
  • WSUtil.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
  • WSUtil.exe is not running.
  • Cannot find WSUtil.exe.
  • Error starting program: WSUtil.exe.
  • Faulting Application Path: WSUtil.exe.
  • The file WSUtil.exe is missing or corrupt.

System Error


The program can’t start because WSUtil.exe is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Finding the source of the WSUtil.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting WSUtil.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Microsoft® Windows® Operating System. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Microsoft Corporation, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of WSUtil.exe errors can occur if it has been accidentally moved, deleted, or corrupted by a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.
