What are plugDaemonHost.dll Error Messages?

Dynamic Link Library plugDaemonHost.dll Errors

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

Access Violation at address - plugDaemonHost.dll.
plugDaemonHost.dll could not be found.
Cannot find C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\Titanium\plugin\plugDaemonHost.dll.
Cannot register plugDaemonHost.dll.
Cannot start Trend Micro Antivirus Plus Security. A required component is missing: plugDaemonHost.dll. Please install Trend Micro Antivirus Plus Security again.
Failed to load plugDaemonHost.dll.
The application has failed to start because plugDaemonHost.dll was not found.
The file plugDaemonHost.dll is missing or corrupt.
This application failed to start because plugDaemonHost.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

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

In the search results, find and click System Restore.
Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).
Follow the steps in the System Restore Wizard to choose a relevant restore point.
Restore your computer to that backup image.

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

Step 2: If recently installed Trend Micro Antivirus Plus Security (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling Trend Micro Antivirus Plus Security software.

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 plugDaemonHost.dll error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

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

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

Windows 10: C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\Titanium\plugin\
