What are AfghanistanFNames.dat Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library AfghanistanFNames.dat Errors

AfghanistanFNames.dat is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like AfghanistanFNames.dat, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like MpSigStub.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. New Star Soccer 3) could share the same AfghanistanFNames.dat file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.

Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared DAT file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when AfghanistanFNames.dat is attempted to be loaded either when New Star Soccer 3 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common AfghanistanFNames.dat errors include:

Your AfghanistanFNames.dat file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with New Star Soccer 3), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, AfghanistanFNames.dat file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading New Star Soccer 3, system crash while loading AfghanistanFNames.dat, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or quite commonly, a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.



How to Fix AfghanistanFNames.dat Errors in 3 Steps (Time to complete: ~5-15 minutes)

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your AfghanistanFNames.dat issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.


Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

When the first two steps haven't solved your issue, it might be a good idea to run Windows Update. Many AfghanistanFNames.dat error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

  3. In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)
  4. If updates are available for download, click "Install Updates".
  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

If Windows Update failed to resolve the AfghanistanFNames.dat error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying AfghanistanFNames.dat to your appropriate Windows system directory. New Star Games typically does not release New Star Soccer 3 DAT 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 AfghanistanFNames.dat and all other DAT files for New Star Soccer 3. An incorrectly installed DAT file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
