Question: When attempting to open a table via SSMS 2012 – through the Edit top 200 rows , I get the Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation , Attempted to read or write protected memory.This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt   error message

Corrupt_memory

How can I fix?

Answer: There are a number of potential fixes to this problem

1)Is the SSMs the correct version? In other words is the SSMS a lower version from the target SQL Server?   For example – are you attempting to connect to SQL Server 2016 from a SSMS version 2012?

2)Have you recently installed\upgrade .Net framework? You may need to repair

3) Have you rebooted the machine hosting the client ?
