Thermal Controller error - 'AlienLabs.ThermalControls.Controller.Classes.ThermalControlsTaskbarIcon'

Hi Guys,

I have been receiving the following message on startup recently -

System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'AlienLabs.ThermalControls.Controller.Classes.ThermalControlsTaskbarIcon' threw an exception. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Call was canceled by the message filter. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010002 (RPC_E_CALL_CANCELED))

   at MS.Internal.Threading.ExceptionFilterHelper.TryCatchWhen(Object source, Delegate method, Object args, Int32 numArgs, Delegate catchHandler)














Any ideas on how to stop this happening?

I have an Aurora r3 and have tried the Power Dissipation test however i'm not sure if it was necessary for this error.

I also ran Dell Diagnostics which came back all good.

Finally I can run Alienware Command Center and change the lighting / see readings from the fans.

Any help would be appreciated!

Chris.

It seems the issue has resolved itself.. For now atleast!

I was wondering if you could explain what the error above means and why it would have occurred?

Thanks,

Chris.
