What are boost_system.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library boost_system.dll Errors

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

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

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

Download boost_system.dll Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying boost_system.dll to your appropriate Windows system directory. Adobe Systems Incorporated typically does not release Adobe Captivate DLL 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 boost_system.dll and all other DLL files for Adobe Captivate. An incorrectly installed DLL file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
