application exception

0xC000009A INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES

A kernel or executive resource the process needed was exhausted — handles, pool, or commit under pressure. Heavy servers and leaky apps show this before a reboot clears counters.

What to do about it

Reboot once to clear leaked handles, then watch Task Manager → Details → Handles.
Update the program if handles climb without bound.
Reduce simultaneous large file operations.

Where you will see this

Windows Error Reporting writes this code into Report.wer files and app-crash minidumps when a program dies but Windows itself stays up. It is not a blue-screen stop code — for those see the stop-code library.

See which module threw this exception

Drop the program's .wer report or crash dump into the app-crash reader — the faulting module is usually the real story. Parsed locally.
