What are pctrlex.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library pctrlex.dll Errors

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

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

How to Fix pctrlex.dll Errors in 3 Steps (Time to complete: ~5-15 minutes)

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your pctrlex.dll issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.


Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

To begin System Restore (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. When you see the search box, type "System Restore" and press "ENTER".
  3. In the search results, find and click System Restore.
  4. Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).
  5. Follow the steps in the System Restore Wizard to choose a relevant restore point.
  6. Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the pctrlex.dll error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: If recently installed ZoneAlarm Antivirus (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling ZoneAlarm Antivirus software.

You can uninstall ZoneAlarm Antivirus software by following these instructions (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. In the search box, type "Uninstall" and press "ENTER".

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

When the first two steps haven't solved your issue, it might be a good idea to run Windows Update. Many pctrlex.dll error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. In the search box, type "Update" and press "ENTER".
  3. In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)
  4. If updates are available for download, click "Install Updates".
  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

If Windows Update failed to resolve the pctrlex.dll error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.
