Fix: Netsh.exe Error 0xc0000142 at Shutdown

When you shut down or restart the computer, the netsh.exe error may appear. The full error message is below:

netsh.exe - Application Error

The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142).
Click OK to close the application.

The error is caused by the Samsung Quick Share application (quickshareservice.exe). It launches the netsh.exe console tool during shutdown or restart.

The error message is non-fatal and can be safely ignored.

Workaround

If you don’t want to see the Netsh.exe error at shutdown, you may uninstall Samsung QuickShare via Apps & Features.

Or, start PowerShell as administrator and run the following command to uninstall the Quick Share app.

get-appxpackage -allusers *SamsungQuickShare* | remove-appxpackage

Restart Windows

If the Netsh.exe error continues to occur, run the following command as well:

get-appxpackage -allusers *SamsungContinuityService* | remove-appxpackage
