ApplePushDirect.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like ApplePushDirect.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like mrt.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Apple iTunes) could share the same ApplePushDirect.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 ApplePushDirect.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Apple iTunes is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common ApplePushDirect.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - ApplePushDirect.dll.
- ApplePushDirect.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\AppleInc.iTunes_12101.4.43017.0_x64__nzyj5cx40ttqa\ApplePushDirect.dll.
- Cannot register ApplePushDirect.dll.
- Cannot start Apple iTunes. A required component is missing: ApplePushDirect.dll. Please install Apple iTunes again.
- Failed to load ApplePushDirect.dll.
- The application has failed to start because ApplePushDirect.dll was not found.
- The file ApplePushDirect.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because ApplePushDirect.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your ApplePushDirect.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Apple iTunes), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, ApplePushDirect.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Apple iTunes, system crash while loading ApplePushDirect.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.
