What are SC2.SAM Error Messages?

Dynamic Link Library SC2.SAM Errors

SC2.SAM is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like SC2.SAM, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like wisptis.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Office) could share the same SC2.SAM file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.

Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared SAM file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when SC2.SAM is attempted to be loaded either when Office is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common SC2.SAM errors include:

Access Violation at address - SC2.SAM.
SC2.SAM could not be found.
Cannot find C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\CONVERT\SC2.SAM.
Cannot register SC2.SAM.
Cannot start Office. A required component is missing: SC2.SAM. Please install Office again.
Failed to load SC2.SAM.
The application has failed to start because SC2.SAM was not found.
The file SC2.SAM is missing or corrupt.
This application failed to start because SC2.SAM was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

Your SC2.SAM file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Office), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, SC2.SAM file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Office, system crash while loading SC2.SAM, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or quite commonly, a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

How to Fix SC2.SAM 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 SC2.SAM 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.

To begin System Restore (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

Hit the Windows Start button
When you see the search box, type "System Restore" and press "ENTER".
In the search results, find and click System Restore.
Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).
Follow the steps in the System Restore Wizard to choose a relevant restore point.
Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the SC2.SAM error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: If recently installed Office (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling Office software.

You can uninstall Office software by following these instructions (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

Hit the Windows Start button
In the search box, type "Uninstall" and press "ENTER".
In the search results, find and click "Add or Remove Programs"
Find the entry for Office 2003 and click "Uninstall"
Follow the prompts for uninstallation.

After the software has been fully uninstalled, restart your PC and reinstall Office software.

If this Step 2 fails as well, please proceed to the Step 3 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 SC2.SAM error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

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

If Windows Update failed to resolve the SC2.SAM error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.

If Those Steps Fail: Download and Replace Your SC2.SAM File (Caution: Advanced)

If none of the previous three troubleshooting steps have resolved your issue, you can try a more aggressive approach (Note: Not recommended for amateur PC users) by downloading and replacing your appropriate SC2.SAM file version. We maintain a comprehensive database of 100% malware-free SC2.SAM files for every applicable version of Office. Please follow the steps below to download and properly replace you file:

Locate your Windows operating system version in the list of below "Download SC2.SAM Files".
Click the appropriate "Download Now" button and download your Windows file version.
Copy this file to the appropriate Office folder location:

Windows XP: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\Convert\
Windows XP: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\CONVERT\
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 XP.

GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve SC2.SAM 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 SC2.SAM Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying SC2.SAM to your appropriate Windows system directory. Microsoft typically does not release Office SAM 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 SC2.SAM and all other SAM files for Office. An incorrectly installed SAM file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
