> Feel your pain, recently I’ve been getting BF1 crashes after a random period of time. Never had one before in the last 12+ months, correlated it too a recent OC on my CPU. Going from 4.0 - 4.5 on my I7-4770k.

> _Windows 10 error ID 10016 is a notorious error that has been around since at least Windows 8. It is flagged when an application tries to start the DCOM server when it doesn’t have the permission to do so. While not a showstopper, the error can clog up Event Viewer with hundreds of instances. So if you want to fix Windows 10 error ID 10016 and clean up your Event Viewer, here’s how._

Mine is a clean install.

MS says its fine to ignore so thats what I do. I don’t like to mess around in the registry.
