What are ld64.exe Error Messages?


ld64.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Adobe Flash Professional CC errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when ld64.exe is attempted to be loaded either when Adobe Flash Professional 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 Flash Professional CC.

In most cases, ld64.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these ld64.exe error messages mean that Adobe Flash Professional CC was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Adobe Flash Professional CC will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common ld64.exe errors include:

  • ld64.exe - Bad Image.
  • ld64.exe Application Error.
  • ld64.exe could not be found.
  • ld64.exe could not be installed.
  • ld64.exe could not be launched. Class not registered.
  • ld64.exe could not be started.
  • ld64.exe failed to initialize properly.
  • ld64.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
  • ld64.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
  • ld64.exe is not running.
  • Cannot find ld64.exe.
  • Error starting program: ld64.exe.
  • Faulting Application Path: ld64.exe.
  • The file ld64.exe is missing or corrupt.

System Error


The program can’t start because ld64.exe is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

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

Finding the source of the ld64.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting ld64.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Adobe Flash Professional CC (not specified). This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Adobe Systems Incorporated, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of ld64.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.

Download ld64.exe Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying ld64.exe to your appropriate Windows system directory. Adobe Systems Incorporated typically does not release Adobe Flash Professional CC EXE 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 ld64.exe and all other EXE files for Adobe Flash Professional CC. An incorrectly installed EXE file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
