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