What are MavisDlx.dat Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library MavisDlx.dat Errors

MavisDlx.dat is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like MavisDlx.dat, 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. Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing 17 Deluxe) could share the same MavisDlx.dat 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 DAT 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 MavisDlx.dat is attempted to be loaded either when Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing 17 Deluxe is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common MavisDlx.dat errors include:

Your MavisDlx.dat file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing 17 Deluxe), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, MavisDlx.dat file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing 17 Deluxe, system crash while loading MavisDlx.dat, 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.
