Error a020000c / 0x80070057, error at decomposing "" ?

Hello,

i got the message "Unbekannter Fehler 0x80070057 beim Zerlegen von "". "
What i've read, it has to do with Windows junctions, but thats a normal Client, no domain-Controller.

Thx in advance,

Manuel

  • Hello Manuel,

    recurring messages? On-access or a scheduled scan? Normally they should be very rare. Can't say what an empty path signifies. Junctions are not restricted to DCs (or server OSs), BTW - for example \Documents and Settings\ on the SystemDrive

  • Hi,

    Are the computers performing a root-kit scan when they are shutdown?  

    I took a quick look at this on a test machine and I can reproduce that error at the client by simply stopping the savservice during the root-kit phase of a scan. I.e. start a scan my computer, wait until it's finished memory, registry etc and it should tell you when it's moved onto the root-kit phase.  During this time, stop the savservice, then check sav.txt and you should see a couple of entries for this error.  

    Using this contrived method, I'm not sure how a message would get sent back to SEC as without the savservice it can't inform the agent of the message.  I can only assume that computers are shutting down, which (based on timing conditions) give the computer enough time to do what is necessary to send a message or store one such that it's sent on next restart.?

    Hope it helps or fits into what you see.

    Regards,

    Jak
