What are Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Prefs.psp Error Messages?

Dynamic Link Library Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Prefs.psp Errors

Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Prefs.psp is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Prefs.psp, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like Setup.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Adobe Photoshop) could share the same Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Prefs.psp 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 PSP 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 Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Prefs.psp is attempted to be loaded either when Adobe Photoshop is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Prefs.psp errors include:

• Access Violation at address - Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Prefs.psp.
