Error 8239. A constraint violation occurred. (0x202F)

This is a typical error that you can get when doing something or processing a task with a program. If the error appeared while you were in the middle of something, try closing the application and then start it again. If another constraint violation error was thrown, try reinstalling the program. Uninstall the faulty application then click Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and click Disk Cleanup.

Select drive C and click OK. Check “Temporary files” and click OK. Click Delete Files to confirm then restart the computer. Install the program back and then try running it again. See if the error appears again. But in case the error appears during startup and you have no idea what application is causing it, you should check which application in the Windows startup is causing the error.

You can do this by disabling the programs in the Windows Startup one at a time. To begin, click Start, Run, and type without quotes “msconfig” then hit Enter. Select Startup tab, uncheck the first item on the list, click OK, and then restart the computer. See if the error appears when starting Windows. See image.

If you still see the error during startup, go back to the Startup tab then check the item you unchecked. Next, go to the next item below it and uncheck it. Click OK then restart your computer. Repeat these steps until you find the buggy program. When you found it, either uninstall it or reinstall it in case you still need it.
