Postup řešení
- 1 First, identify which program is causing the error. Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) and go to the 'Details' tab. Look for processes with high handle counts (add the 'Handles' column by right-clicking the column headers). A process with an unusually high handle count (thousands) might be leaking mutants. Note the process name.
- 2 If you find a suspicious process, try restarting that application. If it's a service, restart the service via services.msc. This releases all handles and might temporarily fix the issue.
- 3 Check for updates for the problematic software. Visit the developer's website and install the latest version. Often, such bugs are fixed in updates.
- 4 If the error occurs system-wide, you can increase the system limit for mutants. This is advanced: open Registry Editor (Win+R, type 'regedit'). Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager. Create a new DWORD (32-bit) value named 'IRPStackSize'? No, that's not right. Actually, the limit for mutants is not directly configurable in Windows. Instead, you can try to reduce the number of running processes. Close unnecessary background apps.
- 5 Run a full system scan for malware using Windows Security (Settings → Privacy & Security → Windows Security → Virus & threat protection). Malware can cause resource leaks. Also, run 'sfc /scannow' to repair system files.
