What are NIHardwareService.exe Error Messages?


NIHardwareService.exe Runtime Errors

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

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

Some of the most common NIHardwareService.exe errors include:

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


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on behalf of Native Instruments GmbH, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware.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

How to Fix NIHardwareService.exe Errors in 3 Steps (Time to complete: ~5-15 minutes)

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your NIHardwareService.exe issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.


Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

  5. Follow the steps in the System Restore Wizard to choose a relevant restore point.
  6. Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the NIHardwareService.exe error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: If recently installed Traktor (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling Traktor software.

You can uninstall Traktor software by following these instructions (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

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


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