iDB.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like iDB.dll, 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. iDailyDiary Free) could share the same iDB.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 iDB.dll is attempted to be loaded either when iDailyDiary Free is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common iDB.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - iDB.dll.
- iDB.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files (x86)\iDailyDiary\iDB.dll.
- Cannot register iDB.dll.
- Cannot start iDailyDiary Free. A required component is missing: iDB.dll. Please install iDailyDiary Free again.
- Failed to load iDB.dll.
- The application has failed to start because iDB.dll was not found.
- The file iDB.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because iDB.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your iDB.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with iDailyDiary Free), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, iDB.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading iDailyDiary Free, system crash while loading iDB.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.
