DLL32.DLL is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like DLL32.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. Restoration) could share the same DLL32.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 DLL32.DLL is attempted to be loaded either when Restoration is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common DLL32.DLL errors include:
- Access Violation at address - DLL32.DLL.
- DLL32.DLL could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Restoration\DLL32.DLL.
- Cannot register DLL32.DLL.
- Cannot start Restoration. A required component is missing: DLL32.DLL. Please install Restoration again.
- Failed to load DLL32.DLL.
- The application has failed to start because DLL32.DLL was not found.
- The file DLL32.DLL is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because DLL32.DLL was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your DLL32.DLL file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Restoration), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, DLL32.DLL file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Restoration, system crash while loading DLL32.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.
