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

Your Corel PaintShop ProRC.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with PaintShop Pro), or deleted by a malware infection.
