What are StartMenuSetting.exe Error Messages?


StartMenuSetting.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Start Menu 8 errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when StartMenuSetting.exe is attempted to be loaded either when Start Menu 8 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Start Menu 8.

In most cases, StartMenuSetting.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these StartMenuSetting.exe error messages mean that Start Menu 8 was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Start Menu 8 will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common StartMenuSetting.exe errors include:

  • StartMenuSetting.exe - Bad Image.
  • StartMenuSetting.exe Application Error.
  • StartMenuSetting.exe could not be found.

Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Finding the source of the StartMenuSetting.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting StartMenuSetting.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Start Menu 8. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of IObit, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of StartMenuSetting.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.
