OR_INVALID_OXID - 1910 (0x776)

The object exporter specified was not found.

Updated: Feb 21, 2026

Technical Background

The OR_INVALID_OXID error code is encountered when a specified object exporter does not exist or cannot be located. This error typically occurs in scenarios where the system attempts to export an object using a specific identifier, but that identifier is invalid.

Error Details

  • Error Name: OR_INVALID_OXID
  • Numeric Code: 1910 (0x776)
  • Short Description: The object exporter specified was not found.

This error indicates that the system attempted to use an object identifier (OXID) but could not find a corresponding object exporter. An object exporter is responsible for exporting or managing specific types of objects within the Windows environment, such as registry keys, files, or other system components.

Common Causes

  • Invalid Parameter Values: The specified OXID does not correspond to any valid object exporter in the system.
  • Incorrect Object Type: The operation attempted is incompatible with the type of object identified by the OXID.
  • Exceeding Limits: The number or types of objects that can be exported simultaneously may have been exceeded, leading to an invalid identifier being generated.

Real-World Context

This error can occur in various scenarios where the system attempts to export data or manage objects using a specific OXID. For example, it might appear when attempting to access or modify registry keys, files, or other system components through APIs that rely on OXID identifiers.

Is This Error Critical?

The criticality of this error depends on the context in which it occurs. If the operation is non-critical and can be retried with valid parameters, the impact may be minimal. However, if the operation is part of a larger system or application that relies heavily on object exporters, the error could indicate a more significant issue.

How to Diagnose

  1. Review Operation Context: Ensure that the context in which the operation was performed is correct and consistent with the expected usage of OXID identifiers.
  2. Validate Parameters: Verify that all parameters passed to the API or function are valid, especially the OXID value.
  3. Confirm Object Types: Check if the object type associated with the OXID matches the operation being performed.
  4. Verify Input Data: Ensure that any input data used in conjunction with the OXID is correct and complete.
  5. Check Limits or Constraints: Confirm that no system limits have been exceeded, such as the maximum number of objects that can be exported simultaneously.

How to Resolve

  1. Correct Parameter Usage: Ensure that all parameters are correctly specified, particularly the OXID value.
  2. Adjust Operation Context: If the operation context is incorrect, adjust it to match the expected usage of OXID identifiers.
  3. Restore Data: If data corruption or invalidation is suspected, restore any necessary data before retrying the operation.
  4. Retry Operation with Valid Inputs: Attempt to perform the operation again using valid inputs and parameters.

Developer Notes

Developers should ensure that all OXID values used in their applications are correctly generated and validated against the expected object exporters. Additionally, they should handle errors gracefully and provide meaningful feedback to users or other components of the system when encountering such issues.

Related Errors

  • OR_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND: Indicates that a requested object could not be found.
  • OR_INVALID_HANDLE: Occurs when an invalid handle is used in an operation.
  • OR_ACCESS_DENIED: Indicates insufficient permissions to perform an operation on an object.

FAQ

Q: What does the OR_INVALID_OXID error mean?

A: The system attempted to use a specified OXID but could not find a corresponding object exporter. This indicates that the OXID is invalid or incorrect for the operation being performed.

Q: How can I prevent this error from occurring?

A: Ensure that all OXID values used in your application are correctly generated and validated against the expected object exporters. Validate parameters, confirm object types, and verify input data to avoid such errors.

Summary

The OR_INVALID_OXID error code indicates an issue with a specified OXID not corresponding to any valid object exporter. This can occur due to invalid parameter values, incorrect object type, or exceeding system limits. By carefully validating parameters and ensuring correct operation context, developers can prevent and resolve this error effectively.
