What are df64.exe Error Messages?

df64.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Defraggler errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when df64.exe is attempted to be loaded either when Defraggler is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Defraggler.

In most cases, df64.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these df64.exe error messages mean that Defraggler was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Defraggler will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common df64.exe errors include:

df64.exe - Bad Image.
df64.exe Application Error.
df64.exe could not be found.
df64.exe could not be installed.
df64.exe could not be launched. Class not registered.
df64.exe could not be started.

Error starting program: df64.exe.
Faulting Application Path: df64.exe.
The file df64.exe is missing or corrupt.

System Error

The program can’t start because df64.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 df64.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting df64.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Defraggler. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Piriform Ltd, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of df64.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.

Download df64.exe Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying df64.exe to your appropriate Windows system directory. Piriform typically does not release Defraggler EXE files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing df64.exe and all other EXE files for Defraggler. An incorrectly installed EXE file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
