mfxplugin64_hevce_sw.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like mfxplugin64_hevce_sw.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like dl.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. HD Video Converter Factory) could share the same mfxplugin64_hevce_sw.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 mfxplugin64_hevce_sw.dll is attempted to be loaded either when HD Video Converter Factory is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common mfxplugin64_hevce_sw.dll errors include:
