What are NativeShim.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library NativeShim.dll Errors

NativeShim.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like NativeShim.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. Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013) could share the same NativeShim.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 NativeShim.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common NativeShim.dll errors include:

Your NativeShim.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, NativeShim.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013, system crash while loading NativeShim.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.
