qmldbg_inspector.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like qmldbg_inspector.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like AddMeta.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. iClone) could share the same qmldbg_inspector.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 qmldbg_inspector.dll is attempted to be loaded either when iClone is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common qmldbg_inspector.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - qmldbg_inspector.dll.
- qmldbg_inspector.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files\Reallusion\iClone 7\Bin64\qmltooling\qmldbg_inspector.dll.
- Cannot register qmldbg_inspector.dll.
- Cannot start iClone. A required component is missing: qmldbg_inspector.dll. Please install iClone again.
- Failed to load qmldbg_inspector.dll.
- The application has failed to start because qmldbg_inspector.dll was not found.
- The file qmldbg_inspector.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because qmldbg_inspector.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your qmldbg_inspector.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with iClone), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, qmldbg_inspector.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading iClone, system crash while loading qmldbg_inspector.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.
