I found this in a Google Search:

Step 1: Check System for Corruption:

Repair System Files

1) Press Win + R

2) Type "cmd" and Press Enter.

3) Type "sfc/scannow" and press enter.

Note: You will need Admin rights to run the sfc command.

Step 2: Update to latest Windows

1) To check for Windows Updates (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

2) Click the Start button.

3) Type "update" into the search box and hit ENTER.

4) The Windows Update dialog box will appear.

5) If updates are available, click the Install Updates button.

Step 3: Clean up Junk Files

1) Click Start

2) Go to All Programs > Accessories > System Tools

3) Click Disk Cleanup

4) Choose what type of files and folders to delete at the Files to delete section

5) Click OK

6) To delete system files that are no longer needed, click Clean up system files.You may be prompted by UAC (User Account Control) to confirm the action.

7) Click Delete Files.

In most cases uiautomationcore.dll fix error should be resolved by now

Looks like a bad Microsoft DLL file.

Fault Module Name:uiautomationcore.dll

Google it and see what comes up.

I have searched for information regarding uiautomationcore.dll but found nothing helpful.  There are sites that allow me to replace the file, but they are either outdated or a malware trap.  Microsoft's website only shows tech specs.  There has to be a way to resolve this issue without wrecking the computer.

You might not like my answer.  Do a clean re-install of Windows.

I may not believe that such a drastic approach is really needed for a minor issue on one program.  These issues started since there was a livekernelevent crash on Windows since the update at the end of October.  This hardware crash seems to only affect Dreamweaver (as far as I know).
