What are hddhook.com Error Messages?


hddhook.com Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Acronis Disk Director Home errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these COM errors are triggered when hddhook.com is attempted to be loaded either when Acronis Disk Director Home is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of COM error you will encounter using Acronis Disk Director Home.

In most cases, hddhook.com runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these hddhook.com error messages mean that Acronis Disk Director Home was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Acronis Disk Director Home will be unable to start without resolving these errors.
