What are COMPONENTS.LOG2 Error Messages?


General COMPONENTS.LOG2 Runtime Errors

COMPONENTS.LOG2 file errors often occur during the startup phase of Office, but can also occur while the program is running. These types LOG2 errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while Office is running. Here are some of the most common COMPONENTS.LOG2 runtime errors:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Windows\System32\config\RegBack\COMPONENTS.LOG2

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


Most LOG2 errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your COMPONENTS.LOG2 file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Office), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, COMPONENTS.LOG2 file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Office, system crash while loading or saving COMPONENTS.LOG2, 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.

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your COMPONENTS.LOG2 issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.

GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve COMPONENTS.LOG2 problems.

If you are not currently backing up your data, you need to do so immediately.



Download COMPONENTS.LOG2 Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying COMPONENTS.LOG2 to your appropriate Windows system directory. Microsoft typically does not release Office LOG2 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 COMPONENTS.LOG2 and all other LOG2 files for Office. An incorrectly installed LOG2 file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
