Main Features:
Overview:
Dynamic-link library (also written as DLL), is Microsoft's implementation of the shared library concept in the Microsoft Windows and OS/2 operating systems. Getting DLL errors may indicate that the shared DLL files have been missing, corrupt, deleted or removed. If you don't get DLL problems repaired immediately, the programs and the operating system would no longer work correctly. To avoid that, this article will discuss on how to manually fix DLL errors for Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP.
Before we start the journey, let's check what causes DLL errors first.
Causes of DLL errors:
Knowing what causes DLL errors helps fix DLL errors faster. There are many aspects that will cause DLL errors, including:
How to fix program related DLL errors:
Program related DLL errors can occur after uninstalling software programs or installing new software programs.
As the new software programs may introduce out-of-date DLL files that would replace the DLL files shared by other software programs and the system, so updating the programs from their websites can help fix DLL errors of this type.
How to fix operating system related DLL errors:
Before you take any methods or DLL repair tools to fix DLL errors related with your operating system, we strongly recommend that you perform a virus/spyware scan on your computer. Virus/spyware can cause damage to the DLL files and the Windows registry entries.
If the DLL problems can't be repaired by removing virus/spyware or fixing Windows registry, you may try restoring your computer to its previously working state to fix DLL errors. To restore your computer, you should start your computer in safe mode first.
How to start your computer in safe mode
1. Start your computer, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears.
2. When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of the display.
Note that before you restore your computer in safe mode, please check your system for any virus/spyware with HitMalware first.
How to restore your computer in safe mode
When your computer is in safe mode, please choose one system restore point prior to the DLL errors, and then click any button that says Restore System or Restore Now.
Note that restoring your computer in safe mode applies to when the DLL errors stop your computer to start normally. If you can enter your system, please try the following:
Still getting DLL errors? Try the methods below:
As usual, restoring computer to its previouly working state helps fix DLL errors. But it can't apply to all cases because the causes of the DLL errors are differnet, so a single method can't solve all issues.
Method 1: Use the System File Checker tool to repair DLL problems
System File Checker lets you scan all protected files to verify their versions. If System File Checker discovers that a protected file has been overwritten, it retrieves the correct version of the file from the cache folder (%Systemroot%\System32\Dllcache), and then replaces the incorrect file. You must be logged on as an administrator or as a member of the Administrators group to run System File Checker.
Method 2: Replace incorrect DLL files to fix DLL errors
Replacing incorrect DLL files with the correct ones helps fix DLL errors. To get correct DLL files, you can try the following:
Important To replace incorrect DLL files in Windows 7 and Windows Vista, you should disable User Account Control (UAC) first. For more information, please see:
1. How to disable UAC in Windows 7
2. How to disable UAC in Windows Vista
Important You should re-register DLL files (e.g. ntoskrnl.exe) to apply the changes, please see the detailed steps below:
1. Click Start, Run
2. Type cmd, press Enter
3. Type regsvr32 ntoskrnl.exe, press Enter
4. Restart your machine
Note that you can't take the following methods to download correct DLL files
DLL files download sites: Most of the DLL files download sites claim that you can download DLL files for free from they website, but when you visit these websites, you will see that they are used to promote registry cleaners. For example, when you search dll files download free on Google, you will see a list of fake DLL files download websites which include:
01. www.dll-files.com
02. www.dlldump.com
03. www.dlldll.com
04. www.dllcity.com
05. www.dllme.com
06. www.dll-files-download.com
07. www.dll4free.com
08. www.dllfilesdown.com
09. www.dllcentral.com
10. www.down-dll.com
If you visit these websites, you will see the fake DLL repair tools, including
01. DLL-files.com Fixer
02. Registry Booster
03. Fix My Registry
04. Registry Mechanic
05. PC Health Advisor
Fake DLL repair tools The above 5 are registry cleaner products and they are marketed by their authors as DLL repair tools. As usual, they will display tons of system errors and then trick PC users into purchasing to clean these false errors. For more information, please see Don't be fooled by registry cleaners or system optimization tools.
Especially, you should pay more attention to DLL-files.com Fixer, like what we have mentioned in the example of the ntoskrnl.exe file. Though the DLL-files.com Fixer provides DLL files download, but the DLL files are only applied to the Windows XP Service Pack 2 operating system. If you use those files to replace the incorrect ones on your Windows Vista Home Premium, your computer will crash. For more information, please see DLL-files.com Fixer is Malware.
If this method did not work
If you try to perform the task that resulted in the DLL error message, and the error message still appears, the possible reason is that the shared DLL files are missing or corrupted. You should download missing DLL files to replace the incorrect ones and then re-register them one by one to apply the changes.
