What are xbrowser.exe Error Messages?


xbrowser.exe Runtime Errors

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

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

Some of the most common xbrowser.exe errors include:

  • xbrowser.exe - Bad Image.
  • xbrowser.exe Application Error.

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

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programming on behalf of Avant Force, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware.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