Here’s one for you: You’re pretty savvy with computers, right? You can do a few fancy things, you know what’s what, you can even help others. So, tell us what DLL files are for.
Hmm. Still waiting.
Don’t feel bad. Even though DLL files are crucial to our computer use (virtually all of our programs use them and won’t work if they’re missing), most of us are unaware of them. And for good reason: DLL files run in the background usually, unseen and not causing any problems.
Until they do. Until they go AWOL or get corrupted. This can happen for a variety of reasons. Maybe you’ve deleted a program, running the uninstall software correctly, and it deleted a DLL file that was common to more than one application.
Or maybe you installed an update and it wrote over the old DLL files, somehow corrupting them.
Worst of all, it’s possible that some sort of malware has attacked your PC and deleted DLL files, making it easier to do its nasty work.
At any rate, a good DLL search program can be a handy piece of software to keep around. To keep tabs on your DLL files, and to know when something goes wrong.
