What are FileAssociationTool.exe Error Messages?


FileAssociationTool.exe Runtime Errors

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

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

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

Finding the source of the FileAssociationTool.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting FileAssociationTool.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using FileAssociationTool. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Freemake, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware.

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

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying FileAssociationTool.exe to your appropriate Windows system directory.

An incorrectly installed EXE file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
