What are fdc.PNF Error Messages?


fdc.PNF Runtime Errors

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

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

Some of the most common fdc.PNF errors include:

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


The program can’t start because fdc.PNF 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 fdc.PNF error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these PNF errors affecting fdc.PNF will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using AMCap 9.23. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Noel Danjou, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of fdc.PNF 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.



How to Fix fdc.PNF Errors in 3 Steps (Time to complete: ~5-15 minutes)

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your fdc.PNF issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.


Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. When you see the search box, type "System Restore" and press "ENTER".

  6. Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the fdc.PNF error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

When the first two steps haven't solved your issue, it might be a good idea to run Windows Update. Many fdc.PNF error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. In the search box, type "Update" and press "ENTER".
  3. In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)
  4. If updates are available for download, click "Install Updates".
  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

If Windows Update failed to resolve the fdc.PNF error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.

  4. Restart your computer.

If this final step has failed and you're still encountering the error, you're only remaining option is to do a clean installation of Windows 10.


GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve fdc.PNF 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 fdc.PNF Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying fdc.PNF to your appropriate Windows system directory. Noel Danjou typically does not release AMCap PNF 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 fdc.PNF and all other PNF files for AMCap. An incorrectly installed PNF file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
