Title: Can't run any .exe files because of missing .dll
Post by: donotcare on March 24, 2017, 02:03:25 PM

I've been looking all over different web forums for a solution to my problem, but to no avail. In the past few weeks my computer has been randomly blue screening and shutting down in the middle of work. The last time this happened, when I rebooted my computer, none of my applications/.exe files have worked. I get a system error message saying...

"The program can't start because .DLL is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

This leaves me confused since it is not telling me any specific .dll that is missing. I've tried resetting my pc and this is also not working for me. I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance

Strongly suggest you post this in the virus/malware section.
