Weird message when running anything from CMD prompt - W10 1607


Recommended Posts

Getting this weird error in bold when running any type of cmd prompt application, WIN32 apps work fine and launch with no error. And the cmd prompt app works fine, just shows that error prior.

Doesn't matter if it's a regular cmd prompt or elevated. Could be related to the latest version of OfficeScan

 

Anyone else able to reproduce or have any ideas?

 

C:\WINDOWS\system32>ping 172.16.50.254

But you are getting that error no matter what you input right?

The error is, [0x7FFE573C70E3] ANOMALY: use of REX.w is meaningless (default operand size is 64), no matter the usage in CMD. The request timing out has nothing to do with his error, you got that error because like OP mentioned the address isnt routeable via public internet. 

 

If I understand correctly, the message shows up but the task in CMD completes just fine? Have you tried running sfc /scannow to see if there are integrity problems? Might need to rebuild the image health and restore via dism

Exactly, and yes SFC/DISM shows clean. I think I have narrowed it down to TrendMicro OfficeScan. If I open a CMD prompt and type ping, I get it, if I unload OfficeScan, type ping again in the same prompt, it doesn't do it. 

I just pushed out a new update to TrendMicro Office Scan that fixes Firewall/Antivirus Status reporting in W10 Redstone, so this must be causing it.  Hopefully this will help others when they start Googling it. And I guess we will wait for TrendMicro to issue a fix/update.

Good to know, I will keep an eye on my corporate laptop as we also run trendmicro office scan.

I'm assuming you've installed something and a non-Microsoft component has extended itself into the cmd prompt environment with the REXX interpreter.  What could it be ... dunno.  Third party Anti virus maybe?  Graphics driver?

 

Did you install anything prior to receiving the error?

    • On xiaomi hyperos there's also an option to disable google assistant. I've got everything disabled. Only thing I do have installed is a web wrapped for duck.ai which claims to let you use various AIs anonymously
    • I need to understand the rationale of not shipping all of these K2 improvements in a single update/release. It's giving "we will fix Windows 11 but no commitments". It seems to me that they just announce these improvements just to appease the community.
