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