videocore.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like videocore.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like 7z.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Cheetah CD Burner) could share the same videocore.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 videocore.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Cheetah CD Burner is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common videocore.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - videocore.dll.
- videocore.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Windows\SysWOW64\videocore.dll.
- Cannot register videocore.dll.
- Cannot start Cheetah CD Burner. A required component is missing: videocore.dll. Please install Cheetah CD Burner again.
- Failed to load videocore.dll.
- The application has failed to start because videocore.dll was not found.
- The file videocore.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because videocore.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your videocore.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Cheetah CD Burner), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, videocore.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Cheetah CD Burner, system crash while loading videocore.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.
