What are DC_Util.exe Error Messages?


DC_Util.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Duplicate Cleaner errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when DC_Util.exe is attempted to be loaded either when Duplicate Cleaner is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Duplicate Cleaner.

In most cases, DC_Util.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these DC_Util.exe error messages mean that Duplicate Cleaner was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Duplicate Cleaner will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common DC_Util.exe errors include:

  • DC_Util.exe - Bad Image.
  • DC_Util.exe Application Error.
  • DC_Util.exe could not be found.
  • DC_Util.exe could not be installed.
  • DC_Util.exe could not be launched. Class not registered.
  • DC_Util.exe could not be started.
  • DC_Util.exe failed to initialize properly.

System Error


The program can’t start because DC_Util.exe is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Finding the source of the DC_Util.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting DC_Util.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Duplicate Cleaner 4.1.2. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of DigitalVolcano Software Ltd, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of DC_Util.exe errors can occur if it has been accidentally moved, deleted, or corrupted by a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.
