Amservice.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like Amservice.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like ABCHHlp.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. AOMEI Backupper) could share the same Amservice.dll 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 DLL 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 Amservice.dll is attempted to be loaded either when AOMEI Backupper is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common Amservice.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - Amservice.dll.
- Amservice.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files (x86)\AOMEI Backupper\Amservice.dll.
- Cannot register Amservice.dll.
- Cannot start AOMEI Backupper. A required component is missing: Amservice.dll. Please install AOMEI Backupper again.
- Failed to load Amservice.dll.
- The application has failed to start because Amservice.dll was not found.
- The file Amservice.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because Amservice.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your Amservice.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with AOMEI Backupper), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, Amservice.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading AOMEI Backupper, system crash while loading Amservice.dll, 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.
