ResourceCompilerPC.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like ResourceCompilerPC.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like cgc.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Far Cry 2) could share the same ResourceCompilerPC.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 ResourceCompilerPC.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Far Cry 2 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common ResourceCompilerPC.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - ResourceCompilerPC.dll.
- ResourceCompilerPC.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Crytek\Far Cry Demo 2\ResourceCompilerPC.dll.
- Cannot register ResourceCompilerPC.dll.
- Cannot start Far Cry 2. A required component is missing: ResourceCompilerPC.dll. Please install Far Cry 2 again.
- Failed to load ResourceCompilerPC.dll.
- The application has failed to start because ResourceCompilerPC.dll was not found.
- The file ResourceCompilerPC.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because ResourceCompilerPC.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your ResourceCompilerPC.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Far Cry 2), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, ResourceCompilerPC.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Far Cry 2, system crash while loading ResourceCompilerPC.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.
