What are Companion.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library Companion.dll Errors

Companion.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like Companion.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like CamRecorder.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Camtasia 2019) could share the same Companion.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 Companion.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Camtasia 2019 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common Companion.dll errors include:

Your Companion.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Camtasia 2019), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, Companion.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Camtasia 2019, system crash while loading Companion.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.

Step 2: If recently installed Camtasia 2019 (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling Camtasia 2019 software.

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. In the search box, type "Update" and press "ENTER".
  3. In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)
  4. If updates are available for download, click "Install Updates".
  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

If Windows Update failed to resolve the Companion.dll error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.

Download Companion.dll Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying Companion.dll to your appropriate Windows system directory. TechSmith typically does not release Camtasia 2019 DLL files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing Companion.dll and all other DLL files for Camtasia 2019. An incorrectly installed DLL file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
