vorbisenc.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like vorbisenc.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like config.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Tennis Elbow 2013) could share the same vorbisenc.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 vorbisenc.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Tennis Elbow 2013 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common vorbisenc.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - vorbisenc.dll.
- vorbisenc.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Windows\SysWOW64\vorbisenc.dll.
- Cannot register vorbisenc.dll.
- Cannot start Tennis Elbow 2013. A required component is missing: vorbisenc.dll. Please install Tennis Elbow 2013 again.
- Failed to load vorbisenc.dll.
- The application has failed to start because vorbisenc.dll was not found.
- The file vorbisenc.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because vorbisenc.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your vorbisenc.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Tennis Elbow 2013), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, vorbisenc.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Tennis Elbow 2013, system crash while loading vorbisenc.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.
