Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Free Download Manager.

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

Finding the source of the browsernativehost.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting browsernativehost.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using browsernativehost.
