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