What are ShellExtension.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library ShellExtension.dll Errors

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

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

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your ShellExtension.dll issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.

  3. In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)
