What are Automatic Duck.exe Error Messages?

Automatic Duck.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Adobe Premiere Pro CC errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when Automatic Duck.exe is attempted to be loaded either when Adobe Premiere Pro CC is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Adobe Premiere Pro CC.

In most cases, Automatic Duck.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these Automatic Duck.exe error messages mean that Adobe Premiere Pro CC was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Adobe Premiere Pro CC will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common Automatic Duck.exe errors include:

Finding the source of the Automatic Duck.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors.
