So some most common cases causing such error can be as follows:-
- Sometimes it's programming error in that specific code or script and hence gets fail while running thus popping up an error message.
- Also sometimes, Windows get crashed due to multiple operations or application being run at the same time (multitasking), and hence when you try to run any software application if it's code does not get CPU cycle to execute, the script fails and pop-ups error message.

These files may also hinder some other application or code on your PC from running. So it's important to delete these unnecessary files which are occupying space in your PC.

Method #5 Uncheck the Pop-Up Blocker
Sometimes script error occurs when your browser has "Pop-ups Blocking" setting. It means you have allowed your browser to block any pop-up that occurs when any software application or web page is opened or run. These pop-ups are the part of that software application or script running on that web page, thus blocking them causes the script to fail from running and hence leads to "Script error" message.

- Navigate to Start and type "msconfig" in the textbox.

- System Configuration dialog box appears. On the Startup tab, look for a mdm.exe file in the list.
- If found, deselect the checkbox.

If you still getting errors even after disabling them in IE or by Reinstalling updated IE, then there is a possibility that your PC have some adware installed and hence you will need some adware removal software.
