AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll, 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. Free PDF Unlocker) could share the same AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.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 AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Free PDF Unlocker is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll.
- AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files (x86)\Free PDF Unlocker\AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll.
- Cannot register AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll.
- Cannot start Free PDF Unlocker. A required component is missing: AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll. Please install Free PDF Unlocker again.
- Failed to load AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll.
- The application has failed to start because AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll was not found.
- The file AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Free PDF Unlocker), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Free PDF Unlocker, system crash while loading AxInterop.XtremeSkinFramework.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.
