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