Random Error Code: 0xC0000005
One day out of nowhere (around the same time I got new ram for my pc) wallpaper engine started to randomly giving me the error 0xC0000005 on a system bootup. I really only see error 0xC0000005 appear when i leave my PC off for a long time (like leaving my pc off overnight then turning it on the next morning). I was wondering if anyone could answer to these questions:

1. what is error code 0xC0000005/what does error code 0xC0000005 mean?
2. is their a proper fix to it?

EDIT TO POST: Before i thought the code (0x7F52D00) i had here was the error code, it was the access violation area that it was trying to read to

but a quick search on google tells me that dcomp.dll is a windows files that it used for memory , in your case it seam that file is broken and you need to repair it with windows tools

start with this command " sfc /scannow "
press your win key
type CMD and run it as admin
then type : sfc /scannow
press enter and wait

Oh my bad I was looking at the access violation thing lol. No but on a serious note i did edit the post and put the actual code

What it said was "Crash caused by: 'C:\Windows\System32\dcomp.dll'. Error code: 0xC0000005. Access violation: trying to read from address 0x07F52D00."

Again thats my fault, I should of read it better. But on the other hand, do you have any idea how to fix error code: "0xC0000005"?

This does seem to fix the issue for now atleast. I switched it to 64 bit then I used the cmd command. Thank you.
