What are dragonsetup.exe Error Messages?

dragonsetup.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 dragonsetup.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, dragonsetup.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these dragonsetup.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 dragonsetup.exe errors include:

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

System Error

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to poor programming on behalf of Comodo, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware.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