'DefaultSettingEXE MCF Application' Error
I recently purchased a new machine with windows vista home premium installed. Ever since I have had the machine I am presented with the following error on boot up

'DefaultSettingEXE MFC Application has stopped working' A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.'

I do not know which program is causing this issue, since as I said it appears on boot up - the only option available to me is 'close program' although it is not apparant which program is being closed

can anyone help me with this please?

thanks a mill in advance

do you have a sonix webcam on this pc?
may want to update the driver for it:

http://www.sonix.com.tw/sonix/product.do?p=sn9c105

or if you never use the cam you may want to disable it from startup:
goto Start - Run -
type in msconfig
click the Startup tab - look for PLFSetI.exe and uncheck it

hi

Thanks for replying

yes there is an untegrated web cam on the machine - it is called crystaleye I think (not replying from the laptop right now) will check the drivers for it. If I disable the application from my start up - will it affect the functionality of the cam in skype? I mean it will only stop it on start up but it will auto re-activate when an application calls it?

ok thanks

I will try that - the cam itself actually works which is odd
Will post back at the weekend
