What are Xpcs Registry.dat Error Messages?

Dynamic Link Library Xpcs Registry.dat Errors

Xpcs Registry.dat is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like Xpcs Registry.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. ICQ) could share the same Xpcs Registry.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 Xpcs Registry.dat is attempted to be loaded either when ICQ is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common Xpcs Registry.dat errors include:

• Access Violation at address - Xpcs Registry.dat.
• Xpcs Registry.dat could not be found.
• Cannot find C:\Program Files (x86)\ICQ\Xpcs Registry.dat.
• Cannot register Xpcs Registry.dat.
• Cannot start ICQ. A required component is missing: Xpcs Registry.dat. Please install ICQ again.
• Failed to load Xpcs Registry.dat.
• The application has failed to start because Xpcs Registry.dat was not found.
• The file Xpcs Registry.dat is missing or corrupt.
• This application failed to start because Xpcs Registry.dat was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

Your Xpcs Registry.dat file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with ICQ), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, Xpcs Registry.dat file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading ICQ, system crash while loading Xpcs Registry.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.
