What are Blade.msstyles Error Messages?

Dynamic Link Library Blade.msstyles Errors

Blade.msstyles is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like Blade.msstyles, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like convert.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Style XP) could share the same Blade.msstyles 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 MSSTYLES 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 Blade.msstyles is attempted to be loaded either when Style XP is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common Blade.msstyles errors include:

• Access Violation at address - Blade.msstyles.
• Blade.msstyles could not be found.
• Cannot find C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Blade\Blade.msstyles.
• Cannot register Blade.msstyles.
• Cannot start Style XP. A required component is missing: Blade.msstyles. Please install Style XP again.
• Failed to load Blade.msstyles.
• The application has failed to start because Blade.msstyles was not found.
• The file Blade.msstyles is missing or corrupt.
• This application failed to start because Blade.msstyles was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

Your Blade.msstyles file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Style XP), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, Blade.msstyles file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Style XP, system crash while loading Blade.msstyles, 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.
