What are interopShell.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library interopShell.dll Errors

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

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