What are BDUpdateServiceCom.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library BDUpdateServiceCom.dll Errors

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

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