What are dragon_setup.exe Error Messages?

dragon_setup.exe Runtime Errors

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

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

Some of the most common dragon_setup.exe errors include:

Finding the source of the dragon_setup.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting dragon_setup.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Comodo Dragon.
