Missing DLL files are a common problem that can cause applications to crash or malfunction. A DLL (dynamic link library) is a type of file that contains code and data that can be used by multiple applications. When an application needs to use a DLL, it checks to see if the DLL is already loaded into memory. If the DLL is not loaded, the application will attempt to load it from the system directory or from the application’s own directory. If the DLL cannot be found, the application will crash or malfunction.
There are several ways to check for missing DLL files. One way is to use the Windows File Explorer. To do this, open the File Explorer and navigate to the directory where the application that is crashing is installed. Look for a file with the extension “.dll”. If the file is not there, then it is likely that the DLL is missing.
