What are OSPPSVC.EXE Error Messages?


OSPPSVC.EXE Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Microsoft Visio Premium 2010 errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when OSPPSVC.EXE is attempted to be loaded either when Microsoft Visio Premium 2010 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Microsoft Visio Premium 2010.

In most cases, OSPPSVC.EXE runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these OSPPSVC.EXE error messages mean that Microsoft Visio Premium 2010 was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Microsoft Visio Premium 2010 will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying OSPPSVC.EXE to your appropriate Windows system directory. Microsoft typically does not release Microsoft Visio Premium 2010 EXE files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer.
