What is a DLL?
DLL is short for Dynamic Link Library and is a file that contains computer code and resources that can be used by multiple programs at the same time. This uses less system memory and makes your system more efficient. DLL files give program developers the ability to reuse code to add features to several programs without having to write new code for each one.
Many programs rely on DLL files to function properly so when one is corrupted or missing it will create program errors and poor system performance.
