What are AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll Errors

AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like wuauclt.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Adaware Antivirus) could share the same AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll 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 DLL 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 AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Adaware Antivirus is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll errors include:

Your AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Adaware Antivirus), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Adaware Antivirus, system crash while loading AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll, 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 AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll 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 AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll 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.

To begin System Restore (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. When you see the search box, type "System Restore" and press "ENTER".

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. In the search box, type "Update" and press "ENTER".
  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 AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.



If Those Steps Fail: Download and Replace Your AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll File (Caution: Advanced)

If none of the previous three troubleshooting steps have resolved your issue, you can try a more aggressive approach (Note: Not recommended for amateur PC users) by downloading and replacing your appropriate AdAwareDefinitionsUpdaterScheduler.dll file version.
