What are pidalc.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library pidalc.dll Errors

pidalc.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like pidalc.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like mrt.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Alcohol 120%) could share the same pidalc.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 pidalc.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Alcohol 120% is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common pidalc.dll errors include:

Your pidalc.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Alcohol 120%), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, pidalc.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Alcohol 120%, system crash while loading pidalc.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 pidalc.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 pidalc.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 pidalc.dll error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: If recently installed Alcohol 120% (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling Alcohol 120% software.

You can uninstall Alcohol 120% 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".

  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".

Download pidalc.dll Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying pidalc.dll to your appropriate Windows system directory. Alcohol Soft typically does not release Alcohol 120% DLL files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing pidalc.dll and all other DLL files for Alcohol 120%. An incorrectly installed DLL file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
