cygiconv-2.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like cygiconv-2.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like mighost.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Aura Free Video Converter) could share the same cygiconv-2.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 cygiconv-2.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Aura Free Video Converter is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common cygiconv-2.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - cygiconv-2.dll.
- cygiconv-2.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files (x86)\Aura4You\Aura Video Converter\gnu\cygiconv-2.dll.
- Cannot register cygiconv-2.dll.
- Cannot start Aura Free Video Converter. A required component is missing: cygiconv-2.dll. Please install Aura Free Video Converter again.
- Failed to load cygiconv-2.dll.
- The application has failed to start because cygiconv-2.dll was not found.
- The file cygiconv-2.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because cygiconv-2.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your cygiconv-2.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Aura Free Video Converter), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, cygiconv-2.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Aura Free Video Converter, system crash while loading cygiconv-2.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.
