OpenCL.dll is a dynamic link library file used to implement the OpenCL (Open Computing Language) API, which is an open standard for programming heterogeneous computing systems. It allows developers to write programs that can run on a wide variety of devices, including CPUs, GPUs, and other specialized accelerators.
There are multiple variants of OpenCL.dll, depending on the manufacturer and version of the graphics hardware and software. The two variants users requested are for Shanghai Zhaoxin Semiconductor Co.,Ltd. and Khronos Group, respectively. The Shanghai Zhaoxin Semiconductor Co.,Ltd. variant is specific to their OpenCL implementation, while the Khronos Group variant is the standard OpenCL ICD (Installable Client Driver) loader used by many graphics hardware manufacturers.
If there is an error with the OpenCL.dll file, it could potentially cause issues with programs that rely on it, such as graphics-intensive applications and games. Reinstalling the OpenCL driver or updating the graphics driver may help resolve the issue.
