An access violation occurs in MSXML 3.0 when you try to close the Internet Explorer window that you are using to display XML data in an XSL document

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft XML (MSXML) 3.0, when you try to close the Microsoft Internet Explorer window that you are using to display Extended Markup Language (XML) data in an Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) document, an access violation occurs.

CAUSE

This problem occurs when you turn on the Auto-Select setting of the Encoding feature in Internet Explorer. When you do this, the DllCanUnloadNow function returns a status of S_OK for the Msxml3.dll file to close the Internet Explorer window. However, the Msxml3.dll file does not close the Internet Explorer window, and an access violation occurs.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, turn off the Auto-Select setting of the Encoding feature in Internet Explorer.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.
