We have come across this specific issue on Windows 2003 (post service pack 1) and Windows XP (post service pack 2) where the machine experiences slow performance and we observe many DCOM 10010 ERRORS in the event logs. If you are running in to this issue, you may see some of the symptoms/errors listed below.
- Doing anything takes forever. You click Start button and it responds to you after a minute (or may be more than that). Switching windows in the Taskbar takes very long.
- If you have IIS installed on the server, the IIS related services may not start or may hang while starting. Typically these errors appear when you try to start them.
- Trying to start the IISADMIN service throws an error - Windows Could not start the IIS Admin Service on Local Computer. For more information, review the system Event log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code –2147221164(0x80040154) or The IIS Admin Service service terminated with service-specific error 2147746132 (0x80040154).
- If IISADMIN service is started, trying to start the World Wide Web Publishing Service hangs and the service goes into the Starting state and after some time it may throw the error - The World Wide Web Publishing Service service terminated with service-specific error 2148007941 (0x80080005)
- While expanding COM+ Applications inside component services, you may get the below error
- An error occurred while processing the last operation
- Error code 8000FFF - Catastrophic failure
- You observe many DCOM Errors 10010 in the event viewer (like this)
- The server {BA126AD1-2166-11D1-B1D0-00805FC1270E} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout
- The server {8BC3F05E-D86B-11D0-A075-00C04FB68820} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout

I experienced this problem after persuasive SQL 7 database was installed. The user permissions were removed from CLSID, Trashed the server. The persuasive was merely a reinstalltion over the top of an already installed program. Thank you - this blog saved me a server rebuild and hours of effort.Anonymous

How do you get into the "permissions on the HKCRCLSID"Anonymous
August 21, 2009
Andrew, HKCR is HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. You can open registry by going to Start->Run and typing 'regedit' and clicking OK. Once you are in regedit, go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. Expand HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and find CLSID key. Right Click and Choose permissions. HTHAnonymous

I am seeing DCOM error 10010 on a Windows XP SP3 machine. The event log message is: The server {1F87137D-0E7C-44D5-8C73-4EFFB68962F2} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout. The PC is an HP Pavilion a6700f Quad-Core w/ 4GB which came with Vista, but we needed XP on it. I would suspect there is some driver issue, but who knows? I will made the suggested change, will reboot now and follow up.Anonymous

In some cases is not possible to set edit ACL via Regedit. :S So I used great setacl tool(http://setacl.sourceforge.net) to give permission to this registry key. Example use of setacl: setacl -on "HKCRCLSID" -ot reg -actn ace -ace "n:Authenticated Users;p:read"Anonymous

Yes! Thanks for the help. I would have NEVAR(!) found it otherwise.... Saved my client big $$...Anonymous

I was experiencing the same issue on XP Home SP3. The problem was partially averted by disabling the Shell Hardware Detection service. Adding Users group w/ READ permission to registry HKCRCLSID via REGEDT32 fixed the issue. Thanks!Anonymous

Fixed it on an XP Professional machine after installing SP3. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Anonymous

Don't forget the Creator / Owner permissions!! This is what repaired my individual case. I believe the problem is Symantec. Went to install Norton AntiVirus 2010, was told that SystemWorks 2009 was incompatible (go figure...), halted the installation but the damage was done. Thanks for the article!!Anonymous

Your solution worked for us too. We have Proventia installed, not sure if it contributed to this by "editing" the ACLs or not, but it is suspect. After a completely unrelated registry ACL change, we ran into this.Anonymous

Thank you so much - this just relieved my huge headache and made many people happy! Users group was missing for some reason. Added it back and no more problem. Still not sure what root cause was...Anonymous

Add me to the "You saved my aXX" list. Somehow an Office 2007 installed whacked the permissions on that key and I could barely even start the darn server. Whew ... I don't have to work ALL weekend after all. Thanks !Anonymous

This solved constant issues with .Net patch installation on a Windows 2003 server. No .Net patch would install after a particular date. Reset CLSID permissions as shown and patches now install. Many thanks!Anonymous

Hi I am seeing alot of these errors Windows Server 2012 R2 , what i also notice is once i reboot the server the erros is cleared for a day and then starts up again , I have checked this option and the permissions are correct . What else could be causing this issue .Anonymous

Hi Shaun, Are you seeing DCOM errors or W3SVCWAS related errors ? One another reason for these errors could be missing registry permissions on other places. You should check what APPID (It is a GUID in the error message) is reported in the event viewer and search it in registry to find out what application that belongs to. If the issue is happening only on a reboot then a PROCMON trace with Boot Logging enabled will help you to identify any access denied issues on registry during startup. Hope that helps Thanks, Puneet GuptaAnonymous

I sent you a post 3 days ago & still see no response concerning the DCOM error 10010,the server {4545DEA0-2DFC-4906-A728-6D986BA399A9} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout. Also 2 other server numbers keep coming up every day since the upgrade to Win 8.1 was forced on me by MS. this has been going on for 6 weeks now. I tried your suggestion but it was for a 2003 version & my permissions are different. they are for All App packages=READ, Restricted=READ, System=FULL& READ, Russell Pryor=FULL & READ, Administrators=FULL & READ. Do I need to modify these permissions? Please help.Anonymous
December 16, 2014
Hello Russell, I am not 100% sure if you are running into the same problem but there is no harm trying these steps. If these help, then good because this article was really written targeting 2003 however I have seen other people commenting that same steps worked for other operating systems as well It these steps don't help then try capturing a procmon trace and see if you see any access denied while accessing registry. Thanks, Puneet GuptaAnonymous
December 17, 2014
In my previous post I gave you the permissions as listed in my registry. I have Win 8.1. Are these the correct permissions for Win 8.1? All app packages=READ, Restricted=READ, System=FULL & READ, Russell Pryor=FULL & READ, Administrators=FULL & READ. I do not want to make any changes if they are already set correctly.Anonymous

Well, no thanks to this website, I finally found a solution. Someone traced the GUID to SkyDrive & recommended unchecking the 2 maintenance tasks. I checked the history first & it said "run failure" every day, so I disabled the 2 maintenance tasks & it worked! I have not had the DCOM server errors since!Anonymous

Wow, thanks to you!!!! Issues on 2003 server resolved. Saved my day. Thank you, thank you!
