What are wlsres.dll.mui Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library wlsres.dll.mui Errors

wlsres.dll.mui is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like wlsres.dll.mui, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like MpSigStub.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Windows Live Essentials 2012) could share the same wlsres.dll.mui 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 MUI 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 wlsres.dll.mui is attempted to be loaded either when Windows Live Essentials 2012 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common wlsres.dll.mui errors include:

Your wlsres.dll.mui file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Windows Live Essentials 2012), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, wlsres.dll.mui file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Windows Live Essentials 2012, system crash while loading wlsres.dll.mui, 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.

  4. If updates are available for download, click "Install Updates".
  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

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

Download wlsres.dll.mui Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying wlsres.dll.mui to your appropriate Windows system directory. Microsoft typically does not release Windows Live Essentials 2012 MUI 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 wlsres.dll.mui and all other MUI files for Windows Live Essentials 2012. An incorrectly installed MUI file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
