What are assoc.cfg Error Messages?


General assoc.cfg Runtime Errors

assoc.cfg file errors often occur during the startup phase of ProShow Producer, but can also occur while the program is running. These types CFG errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while ProShow Producer is running. Here are some of the most common assoc.cfg runtime errors:

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files (x86)\Photodex\ProShow Producer\assoc.cfg

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.


Most CFG errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your assoc.cfg file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with ProShow Producer), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, assoc.cfg file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading ProShow Producer, system crash while loading or saving assoc.cfg, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or malware infection. Thus, it’s critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Download assoc.cfg Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying assoc.cfg to your appropriate Windows system directory. Photodex typically does not release ProShow Producer CFG files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing assoc.cfg and all other CFG files for ProShow Producer. An incorrectly installed CFG file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
