What are u32Hook.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library u32Hook.dll Errors

u32Hook.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like u32Hook.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like choice.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. PhotoImpact) could share the same u32Hook.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 u32Hook.dll is attempted to be loaded either when PhotoImpact is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common u32Hook.dll errors include:

Your u32Hook.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with PhotoImpact), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, u32Hook.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading PhotoImpact, system crash while loading u32Hook.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.
