I also get these errors.
Activation context generation failed for "D:\Programs\Nero\Nero8\Nero
Toolkit\DiscSpeed.exe".Error in manifest or policy file "" on line . A
component version required by the application conflicts with another
component version already active. Conflicting components are:. Component 1:
C:\Windows\WinSxS\manifests\amd64_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.6000.16386_none_1559f1c6f365a7fa.manifest.
Component 2:
C:\Windows\WinSxS\manifests\x86_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.6000.16386_none_5d07289e07e1d100.manifest.
NOTE: that installing this update
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932406
will cause more of those errors, more often.
