What are InspectorOfficeGadget.exe Error Messages?

InspectorOfficeGadget.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Microsoft Office 2016 Preview (32 bit) errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when InspectorOfficeGadget.exe is attempted to be loaded either when Microsoft Office 2016 Preview (32 bit) is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Microsoft Office 2016 Preview (32 bit).

In most cases, InspectorOfficeGadget.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these InspectorOfficeGadget.exe error messages mean that Microsoft Office 2016 Preview (32 bit) was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Microsoft Office 2016 Preview (32 bit) will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common InspectorOfficeGadget.exe errors include:

Finding the source of the InspectorOfficeGadget.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting InspectorOfficeGadget.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Microsoft.Office.C2R.InspectorOfficeGadget. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Microsoft Corporation, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of InspectorOfficeGadget.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.
