What are DECO_32.DLL Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library DECO_32.DLL Errors

DECO_32.DLL is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like DECO_32.DLL, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like ARTGALRY.EXE - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Office) could share the same DECO_32.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 DECO_32.DLL is attempted to be loaded either when Office is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common DECO_32.DLL errors include:

Your DECO_32.DLL file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Office), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, DECO_32.DLL file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Office, system crash while loading DECO_32.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.

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your DECO_32.DLL issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.


Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

  6. Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the DECO_32.DLL error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Download DECO_32.DLL Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying DECO_32.DLL to your appropriate Windows system directory. Microsoft typically does not release Office 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 DECO_32.DLL and all other DLL files for Office. An incorrectly installed DLL file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
