What are kave8.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library kave8.dll Errors

kave8.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like kave8.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. ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019) could share the same kave8.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 kave8.dll is attempted to be loaded either when ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019 is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common kave8.dll errors include:

Your kave8.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, kave8.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019, system crash while loading kave8.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 kave8.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 kave8.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".
  3. In the search results, find and click System Restore.
  4. Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).
  5. Follow the steps in the System Restore Wizard to choose a relevant restore point.
  6. Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the kave8.dll error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: If recently installed ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019 (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019 software.

You can uninstall ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019 software by following these instructions (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

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 kave8.dll error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

  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 kave8.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 kave8.dll File (Caution: Advanced)

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying kave8.dll to your appropriate Windows system directory. ZoneAlarm typically does not release ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019 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 kave8.dll and all other DLL files for ZoneAlarm Pro Antivirus+Firewall 2019. An incorrectly installed DLL file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
