What are CUH.ini Error Messages?


General CUH.ini Runtime Errors

CUH.ini file errors often occur during the startup phase of PaintShop Pro, but can also occur while the program is running. These types INI errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while PaintShop Pro is running. Here are some of the most common CUH.ini runtime errors:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files (x86)\Corel\CUH\v2\CUH.ini

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.


Most INI errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your CUH.ini file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with PaintShop Pro), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, CUH.ini file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading PaintShop Pro, system crash while loading or saving CUH.ini, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or malware infection. Thus, it’s critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

If you are not currently backing up your data, you need to do so immediately.



Download CUH.ini Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying CUH.ini to your appropriate Windows system directory. Corel typically does not release PaintShop Pro INI 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 CUH.ini and all other INI files for PaintShop Pro. An incorrectly installed INI file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
