PDFill_Helper.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like PDFill_Helper.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like DownloadComponents.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. PDFill Free PDF Editor Basic) could share the same PDFill_Helper.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 PDFill_Helper.dll is attempted to be loaded either when PDFill Free PDF Editor Basic is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common PDFill_Helper.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - PDFill_Helper.dll.

Your PDFill_Helper.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with PDFill Free PDF Editor Basic), or deleted by a malware infection.

Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.
