What are formats.js Error Messages?


General formats.js Runtime Errors

formats.js file errors often occur during the startup phase of Adobe Premiere Pro CC, but can also occur while the program is running. These types JS errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while Adobe Premiere Pro CC is running. Here are some of the most common formats.js runtime errors:

Most JS errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your formats.js file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Adobe Premiere Pro CC), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, formats.js file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Adobe Premiere Pro CC, system crash while loading or saving formats.js, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or malware infection. Thus, it’s critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve formats.js problems. To avoid data loss, you must be sure that you have backed-up all of your important documents, pictures, software installers, and other personal data before beginning the process. If you are not currently backing up your data, you need to do so immediately.



Download formats.js Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


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