What are lansext.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library lansext.dll Errors

lansext.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like lansext.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. Softerra LDAP Browser) could share the same lansext.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 lansext.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Softerra LDAP Browser is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common lansext.dll errors include:

Your lansext.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Softerra LDAP Browser), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, lansext.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Softerra LDAP Browser, system crash while loading lansext.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 lansext.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 lansext.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 lansext.dll error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: If recently installed Softerra LDAP Browser (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling Softerra LDAP Browser software.

You can uninstall Softerra LDAP Browser software by following these instructions (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button

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 lansext.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 lansext.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 lansext.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 lansext.dll file version. We maintain a comprehensive database of 100% malware-free lansext.dll files for every applicable version of Softerra LDAP Browser. Please follow the steps below to download and properly replace you file:

  3. Copy this file to the appropriate Softerra LDAP Browser folder location:
    Windows 10: C:\Program Files (x86)\Softerra\LDAP Browser 4\
  4. Restart your computer.

If this final step has failed and you're still encountering the error, you're only remaining option is to do a clean installation of Windows 10.

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


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