What are Win64ShellLink.exe Error Messages?

Win64ShellLink.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Malware Hunter errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when Win64ShellLink.exe is attempted to be loaded either when Malware Hunter is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Malware Hunter.

In most cases, Win64ShellLink.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these Win64ShellLink.exe error messages mean that Malware Hunter was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Malware Hunter will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common Win64ShellLink.exe errors include:

Win64ShellLink.exe - Bad Image.
Win64ShellLink.exe Application Error.
Win64ShellLink.exe could not be found.
Win64ShellLink.exe could not be installed.

System Error

The program can’t start because Win64ShellLink.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 Win64ShellLink.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting Win64ShellLink.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Glary Utilities. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Glarysoft Ltd, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of Win64ShellLink.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.

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your Win64ShellLink.exe issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.

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

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the Win64ShellLink.exe error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.
