crypto_ssl_1_1.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like crypto_ssl_1_1.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. ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019) could share the same crypto_ssl_1_1.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 crypto_ssl_1_1.dll is attempted to be loaded either when ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common crypto_ssl_1_1.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - crypto_ssl_1_1.dll.
- crypto_ssl_1_1.dll could not be found.

Your crypto_ssl_1_1.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019), or deleted by a malware infection.
