What are WPGEXP32.FLT Error Messages?

Dynamic Link Library WPGEXP32.FLT Errors

WPGEXP32.FLT is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like WPGEXP32.FLT, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like accicons.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Office) could share the same WPGEXP32.FLT file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.

Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared FLT file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when WPGEXP32.FLT is attempted to be loaded either when Office is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common WPGEXP32.FLT errors include:

Access Violation at address - WPGEXP32.FLT.
WPGEXP32.FLT could not be found.
Cannot find C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\GRPHFLT\WPGEXP32.FLT.
Cannot register WPGEXP32.FLT.
Cannot start Office. A required component is missing: WPGEXP32.FLT. Please install Office again.
Failed to load WPGEXP32.FLT.
The application has failed to start because WPGEXP32.FLT was not found.
The file WPGEXP32.FLT is missing or corrupt.
This application failed to start because WPGEXP32.FLT was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

Your WPGEXP32.FLT file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Office), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, WPGEXP32.FLT file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Office, system crash while loading WPGEXP32.FLT, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or quite commonly, a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

How to Fix WPGEXP32.FLT Errors in 3 Steps (Time to complete: ~5-15 minutes)

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your WPGEXP32.FLT issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.

Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

To begin System Restore (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

Hit the Windows Start button
When you see the search box, type "System Restore" and press "ENTER".
In the search results, find and click System Restore.
Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).
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 WPGEXP32.FLT error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: If recently installed Office (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling Office software.

You can uninstall Office software by following these instructions (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

Hit the Windows Start button
In the search box, type "Uninstall" and press "ENTER".
In the search results, find and click "Add or Remove Programs"

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

When the first two steps haven't solved your issue, it might be a good idea to run Windows Update. Many WPGEXP32.FLT error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

Hit the Windows Start button
In the search box, type "Update" and press "ENTER".
In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)
If updates are available for download, click "Install Updates".
After the update is completed, restart your PC.

If Windows Update failed to resolve the WPGEXP32.FLT error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.

If Those Steps Fail: Download and Replace Your WPGEXP32.FLT File (Caution: Advanced)

If none of the previous three troubleshooting steps have resolved your issue, you can try a more aggressive approach (Note: Not recommended for amateur PC users) by downloading and replacing your appropriate WPGEXP32.FLT file version. We maintain a comprehensive database of 100% malware-free WPGEXP32.FLT files for every applicable version of Office. Please follow the steps below to download and properly replace you file:

Locate your Windows operating system version in the list of below "Download WPGEXP32.FLT Files".
Click the appropriate "Download Now" button and download your Windows file version.
Copy this file to the appropriate Office folder location:

Windows XP: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\GRPHFLT\
Windows XP: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\GRPHFLT\
Restart your computer.

If this final step has failed and you're still encountering the error, you're only remaining option is to do a clean installation of Windows XP.

GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve WPGEXP32.FLT problems. To avoid data loss, you must be sure that you have backed-up all of your important documents, pictures, software installers, and other personal data before beginning the process. If you are not currently backing up your data, you need to do so immediately.

Download WPGEXP32.FLT Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying WPGEXP32.FLT to your appropriate Windows system directory. Microsoft typically does not release Office FLT files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing WPGEXP32.FLT and all other FLT files for Office. An incorrectly installed FLT file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
