NS_E_UNSUPPORTED_LOAD_TYPE

Mechanism and scope

This result (0xC00D1453) marks a plug-in does not implement the requested in-process or out-of-process activation mode. The code identifies a narrow server contract, so diagnosis should preserve the object instance and the first native return.

Code-specific failure anatomy

A representative occurrence is when a plug-in does not implement the requested in-process or out-of-process activation mode. Capture requested load type, plug-in registration flags, COM server model, architecture and default load policy together with the object instance and the exact administrative or protocol request.

For a useful negative control, select a load type advertised by the plug-in or install a build registered for the required model.

The tempting but misleading response is repeatedly restarting WMServer; capability metadata does not change. That action does not test the distinction that matters here: invalid load-type configuration means the plug-in advertises no usable mode at all.

Build a reproducible incident record

Controlled comparisonUse a known-good object of the same type and vary only the precondition described as “a plug-in does not implement the requested in-process or out-of-process activation mode”.

A controlled correction

  1. Capture 0xC00D1453, the symbolic name, the exact API/administrative action and the first failure timestamp.
  2. Preserve requested load type, plug-in registration flags, COM server model, architecture and default load policy.
  3. Perform one isolated experiment: select a load type advertised by the plug-in or install a build registered for the required model.

Repeat the test with a newly resolved server object; a stale COM pointer can make a correct configuration appear unchanged.

Do not merge nearby HRESULT values

Primary distinction: invalid load-type configuration means the plug-in advertises no usable mode at all.

Nearby resultDifferent condition
NS_E_INVALID_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE_CONFIGURATIONa Windows Media Services plug-in registration exposes no supported activation mode.
NS_E_WRONG_PUBLISHING_POINT_TYPEa cache/proxy-only or ordinary publishing-point method is being used on the other object type.
NS_E_INVALID_PUBLISHING_POINT_NAMEthe proposed publishing-point name violates naming or path rules.

Changes that do not establish the cause

  • repeatedly restarting WMServer; capability metadata does not change.
  • a successful ping or local file open is not sufficient proof: the failing service account and Windows Media Services object must perform the same operation.
