This problem could happen if the file is corrupted due to some reason. If you are receiving this bug frequently, then it will become very irritating.
“werfault” or the “werfault.exe” program is part of the Windows error reporting system that collects and sends error logs from your machine to Microsoft. It has a partner program named “wermgr.exe.” When one of these programs has a problem, you may receive the message “The instruction at the referenced memory could not read. Click on OK to terminate the program.”
This error message is common to Microsoft Windows because I also receive it on other programs. The cause of the error can be from either of the programs or from the physical RAM. If you receive an error related to “wermgr.exe” or “werfault.exe,” try running the SFC utility. The problem happens when either of the files is corrupt.
Click “Start,” “All Programs,” “Accessories” then right-click “Command Prompt” and select “Run as administrator.” In the command prompt window, type without quotes “sfc /scannow” then hit Enter. This scans the protected system files on your system drive and replaces incorrect versions with correct ones. When SFC is finished, close the command prompt and restart your computer. See if it works.
If this fails, try running the Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool.
