pptPdfEncrypt.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like pptPdfEncrypt.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. Canon MP Navigator) could share the same pptPdfEncrypt.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 pptPdfEncrypt.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Canon MP Navigator is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common pptPdfEncrypt.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - pptPdfEncrypt.dll.
- pptPdfEncrypt.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files (x86)\Canon\MP Navigator EX 5.0\pptPdfEncrypt.dll.
- Cannot register pptPdfEncrypt.dll.
- Cannot start Canon MP Navigator. A required component is missing: pptPdfEncrypt.dll. Please install Canon MP Navigator again.
- Failed to load pptPdfEncrypt.dll.
- The application has failed to start because pptPdfEncrypt.dll was not found.
- The file pptPdfEncrypt.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because pptPdfEncrypt.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your pptPdfEncrypt.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Canon MP Navigator), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, pptPdfEncrypt.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Canon MP Navigator, system crash while loading pptPdfEncrypt.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.
