Have you tried The remote procedure call failed and did not execute. How can I set up a system to run batch files on a remote Windows PC from an instant messaging. Sep 19, 2014 Best Printers; Best Wearable Tech. Windows Settings Remote Procedure Call Failed. 'All Microsoft can do is make sure things work with a stock Windows install.' Remote Procedure Call Failed message when trying to install. Having trouble signing in? Remote Procedure Call Failed message when trying to install the driver for MFP772DN on Windows 10. Unable to install printer. The remote procedure call failed.
I can't seem to open any folder using Explorer in Windows 7 RC b7100, as it fails with the above error. This happened after Explorer stopped picking up metadata on files, and so I killed and restarted explorer using Task Manager. Files and folders on my Desktop still show up, and files still open in their respective applications, but folders won't show, as with the error. Happens with any local folder.
I can't find anything on Google. I haven't touched any Explorer settings, and I'm not interested in an Explorer alternative. I can restart, but this has happened once before, so I'm thinking it'll happen again after a restart. Anyone have any more permanent ideas?

Every time I try to open an image with the default Photos app in Windows 10, it shows a black window and after a few seconds I get this error:
Then the app closes and the image doesn't show up. If I open the Photos app directly, it just closes after a few seconds more, but no error is shown.
I have checked the RPC Services and its
Status is Running and its Startup Type set to Automatic .
The RPC Locator is not running and its
Startup Type is set to Manual .
I've tried to do a clean install of Windows again, and it worked the first time I opened the app. Once I closed it, after just downloading a few programs (but not installing any of them), it's not working, again.
The network was initially set to public, but changing it to private did not solve the problem.
The firewall has a few Inbound Rules for RPC, but none of them is enabled:
EDIT:
None of the proposed solutions worked for me. However, this was fixed some months after I posted the question by a Windows update.

If you have an N or KN version installed you should try installing the Media Feature Pack for N and KN versions of Windows 10

I just encountered this error after an update. I worked around it by changing the default association to Windows Photo Viewer :

I had this problem with (only) one account. This worked for me:
I guess it was a specific security settings problem and removing the folders made Windows recreate the correct properties.
Of course I take no responsibility for any damage this might cause to your system. :-)

A number of file associations did not work for me after the update. My solution was to associate the extension to another app and then back again. Ufr ii printer driver uninstaller. It looks like some registry mashup during upgrade.

We tried every solution to this problem including
We ended up just enabling the Windows Photo Viewer app which came by default in Windows 7 and it works flawlessly. There is a more expansive post here at the Windows 10 forums, but here's the basics:
