ac3file64.ax is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like ac3file64.ax, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like FileCoAuth.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Windows 8 Codecs Pack) could share the same ac3file64.ax file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.
Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared AX file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when ac3file64.ax is attempted to be loaded either when Windows 8 Codecs Pack is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common ac3file64.ax errors include:
- Access Violation at address - ac3file64.ax.
- ac3file64.ax could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files\Web Solution Mart\Windows 8 Codecs Pack\AC3\ac3file64.ax.
- Cannot register ac3file64.ax.
- Cannot start Windows 8 Codecs Pack. A required component is missing: ac3file64.ax. Please install Windows 8 Codecs Pack again.
- Failed to load ac3file64.ax.
- The application has failed to start because ac3file64.ax was not found.
- The file ac3file64.ax is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because ac3file64.ax was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your ac3file64.ax file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Windows 8 Codecs Pack), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, ac3file64.ax file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Windows 8 Codecs Pack, system crash while loading ac3file64.ax, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or quite commonly, a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.
