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