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