What are tmupgrade.exe Error Messages?


tmupgrade.exe Runtime Errors

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

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

Some of the most common tmupgrade.exe errors include:

Finding the source of the tmupgrade.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors.
