pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like MpSigStub.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. PowerArchiver) could share the same pacabsfx_fr-FR.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 pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat is attempted to be loaded either when PowerArchiver is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat errors include:
- Access Violation at address - pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat.
- pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files\PowerArchiver\sfxs\pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat.
- Cannot register pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat.
- Cannot start PowerArchiver. A required component is missing: pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat. Please install PowerArchiver again.
- Failed to load pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat.
- The application has failed to start because pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat was not found.
- The file pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with PowerArchiver), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, pacabsfx_fr-FR.dat file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading PowerArchiver, system crash while loading pacabsfx_fr-FR.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.
