What are DG_Setup.exe Error Messages?


DG_Setup.exe Runtime Errors

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

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

Some of the most common DG_Setup.exe errors include:

  • DG_Setup.exe - Bad Image.
  • DG_Setup.exe Application Error.
  • DG_Setup.exe could not be found.
  • DG_Setup.exe could not be installed.
  • DG_Setup.exe could not be launched. Class not registered.

Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Finding the source of the DG_Setup.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting DG_Setup.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Driver Genius. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Driver-Soft Inc., conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of DG_Setup.exe errors can occur if it has been accidentally moved, deleted, or corrupted by a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.
