What are settings.dat.LOG1 Error Messages?


General settings.dat.LOG1 Runtime Errors

settings.dat.LOG1 file errors often occur during the startup phase of Windows, but can also occur while the program is running. These types LOG1 errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while Windows is running. Here are some of the most common settings.dat.LOG1 runtime errors:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Users\Bill\AppData\Local\Packages\windows.immersivecontrolpanel_cw5n1h2txyewy\Settings\settings.dat.LOG1

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.


Most LOG1 errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your settings.dat.LOG1 file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Windows), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, settings.dat.LOG1 file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Windows, system crash while loading or saving settings.dat.LOG1, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or malware infection. Thus, it’s critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

To begin System Restore (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. When you see the search box, type "System Restore" and press "ENTER".
  3. In the search results, find and click System Restore.
  4. Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).
  5. Follow the steps in the System Restore Wizard to choose a relevant restore point.
  6. Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the settings.dat.LOG1 error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: Run SFC (System File Checker) to restore the corrupt or missing settings.dat.LOG1 file.

System File Checker is a utility included with every Windows version that allows you scan and restore corrupted system files. Use the SFC tool to fix missing or corrupt settings.dat.LOG1 files (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. In the search box, type "cmd" but DO NOT PRESS "ENTER".
  3. Press and hold "CTRL-Shift" on your keyboard while pressing "ENTER".
  4. You'll be prompted with a permission dialog box.

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying settings.dat.LOG1 to your appropriate Windows system directory. Microsoft typically does not release Windows LOG1 files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing settings.dat.LOG1 and all other LOG1 files for Windows. An incorrectly installed LOG1 file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
