What are DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll Errors

DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like mrt.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Paint.NET) could share the same DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.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 DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Paint.NET is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll errors include:

Your DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Paint.NET), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Paint.NET, system crash while loading DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.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.

  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 DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.



If Those Steps Fail: Download and Replace Your DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll File (Caution: Advanced)

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying DdsFileTypePlusIO_x86.dll to your appropriate Windows system directory. dotPDN LLC typically does not release Paint.NET DLL files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer.
