Windows Recovery Error after DEP set to AlwaysOff

Josh06 · Jul 13, 2009

I have an application that cannot run Crystal Reports on Vista. I was told to set DEP off using the command "bcdedit.exe /set {current} nx AlwaysOff" and the machine crashes on restart with a Windows Recovery Error message. I can easily change the setting back to OptIn from my command prompt. I have a Dell Latitude E6500 and Vista Business 32bit machine. I need the DEP set to AlwaysOff as I need to run my reports. What do I do?

can you not set dep to "opt out" and turn it off for your specific program?

I set DEP to OptOut and tried to turn off for my program but got this error "This program must run with DEP enabled. You cannot turn off DEP for this program".
