What are _ico.XML Error Messages?


General _ico.XML Runtime Errors

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

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files (x86)\HexEdit\_ico.XML

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


Most XML errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your _ico.XML file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with HexEdit), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, _ico.XML file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading HexEdit, system crash while loading or saving _ico.XML, 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.

GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve _ico.XML problems.

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



Download _ico.XML Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying _ico.XML to your appropriate Windows system directory. Expert Commercial Software typically does not release HexEdit XML 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 _ico.XML and all other XML files for HexEdit. An incorrectly installed XML file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
