Our C++ application runs on Windows 7 using tPP 7.0.3.175

During the installation of a WIndows update, the application often crashes. It seems to be crashing in a call to or when calling an IPP function.

This happens only during Windows updates. Is anyone familiar with this problem? And are there solutions?

>>...It seems to be crashing in a call to or when calling an IPP function... There are a couple of thousands of IPP functions in the IPP library. Could you be more specific? >>...This happens only during Windows updates. Is anyone familiar with this problem? And are there solutions?.. More technical details are needed.

It was some ZigZag function, but I don't think the specific function matters. Someone said it might have to do with Windows Update pushing the IPP dlls out or having to leave kernel mode or something like that, Does any of this make any sense?

The stack was corrupt. It only showed the xxZigZagxxx method and ???????. Did I mention it was compiled in an mingw32 environment?

No. You need to provide more technical details: - IPP version - exact function name - Windows OS and SP - a KBnnnnnn code for a Windows update when a crash of the IPP application happens - a C/C++ test-case
