What is a .DLL file?
Dynamic Link Library (.DLL) |
|
A .dll file is an application module used to perform specific program functions and may be required by another application or module (.exe, .dll).
Both .dll files and applications (.exe) are executable program modules however there is one obvious difference; .DLL files are not programs that can be directly executed by the user.
For example lets say you have program.exe and it requires test1.dll.
If the test1.dll file is missing or if it is corrupted, your program.exe will error and may not function properly.
- Reasons to replace or install .dll files.
- Missing .DLL files.
- Software or windows .DLL errors.
- Corrupted or damaged .DLL files.
- Old .dll versions that may need to be updated.
- Different developers create identical .dll names, however each are created for separate software.
