What are hi_IN.dic Error Messages?

Dynamic Link Library hi_IN.dic Errors

hi_IN.dic is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like hi_IN.dic, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like Setup.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Adobe Photoshop) could share the same hi_IN.dic 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 DIC 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 hi_IN.dic is attempted to be loaded either when Adobe Photoshop is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common hi_IN.dic errors include:

• Access Violation at address - hi_IN.dic.
• hi_IN.dic could not be found.
• Cannot find C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019\Required\Linguistics\Providers\Plugins2\AdobeHunspellPlugin\dictionaries\hi_in\hi_IN.dic.
• Cannot register hi_IN.dic.
• Cannot start Adobe Photoshop. A required component is missing: hi_IN.dic. Please install Adobe Photoshop again.
• Failed to load hi_IN.dic.
• The application has failed to start because hi_IN.dic was not found.
• The file hi_IN.dic is missing or corrupt.
• This application failed to start because hi_IN.dic was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

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