MotionTool.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like MotionTool.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. PicsArt - Photo Studio) could share the same MotionTool.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 MotionTool.dll is attempted to be loaded either when PicsArt - Photo Studio is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common MotionTool.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - MotionTool.dll.
- MotionTool.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\2FE3CB00.PicsArt-PhotoStudio_8.8.0.0_x86__crhqpqs3x1ygc\MotionTool.dll.
- Cannot register MotionTool.dll.
- Cannot start PicsArt - Photo Studio. A required component is missing: MotionTool.dll. Please install PicsArt - Photo Studio again.
- Failed to load MotionTool.dll.
- The application has failed to start because MotionTool.dll was not found.
- The file MotionTool.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because MotionTool.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your MotionTool.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with PicsArt - Photo Studio), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, MotionTool.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading PicsArt - Photo Studio, system crash while loading MotionTool.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.
