Runtime error 217 at 500E8338

Would have Edit'd but my window was open for too long, just updating my post above.

When I turn Spybot's "Live Protection" OFF I no longer recieve the error and everything runs flawlessly like it used to.

So your 'Error 217' has something to do with your "Live Protection".

I know this thread is old but I wanted to say thanks for the tip. After unticking the check mark next to "Scan programs before they start" I stopped encountering the error "Runtime error 217 at 500E8338".

Really appreciate you confirming this as a possible solution. Win10, DevPreview edition. Same "Runtime error 217 at 500E8338" error started when I upgraded SpyBot. Just tested this solution. I'll return to the thread and check with support if it doesn't solve it for me also.

Bummer that feature causes run time error.
