What are frinstall.exe Error Messages?


frinstall.exe Runtime Errors

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

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

Some of the most common frinstall.exe errors include:

  • frinstall.exe - Bad Image.
  • frinstall.exe Application Error.
  • frinstall.exe could not be found.
  • frinstall.exe could not be installed.
  • frinstall.exe could not be launched. Class not registered.
  • frinstall.exe could not be started.
  • frinstall.exe failed to initialize properly.
  • frinstall.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
  • frinstall.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
  • frinstall.exe is not running.
  • Cannot find frinstall.exe.
  • Error starting program: frinstall.exe.
  • Faulting Application Path: frinstall.exe.
  • The file frinstall.exe is missing or corrupt.
  • Windows failed to start - frinstall.exe.
System Error


The program can’t start because frinstall.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 frinstall.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting frinstall.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using File Recover 7.5.0.15. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of PC Tools, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of frinstall.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.

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

When the first two steps haven't solved your issue, it might be a good idea to run Windows Update. Many frinstall.exe error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

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


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying frinstall.exe to your appropriate Windows system directory. PC Tools typically does not release File Recover 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 frinstall.exe and all other EXE files for File Recover. An incorrectly installed EXE file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
