Dll Install Help and FAQs

Find help with installing .dll files.

What is a .dll file?

DLL stands for dynamic link library. Everytime a program is opened on your computer, the program will loads certain processes into your system's RAM (random access memory). Some programs, in an effort to save RAM, group together like processes into one .dll file. Then, when the program needs to execute a particular process, it can dynamically link the process from this library or .dll into the system RAM.

Why do .dll files cause errors?

Many times, two or more programs can share the same .dll file. Each of these programs uses the file to execute similar processes. An example of this would be a printer driver - any program that uses that printer will need to call it's .dll driver in order to communicate. Sometimes when users install and uninstall programs in Windows, a .dll file can be accidentally erased. Other times, a file can be damaged by faulty program updates or re-installs. There are a number of ways that a dll file can lead to a Windows error.
