What are mini.scr Error Messages?


mini.scr Runtime Errors

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

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

Some of the most common mini.scr errors include:

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


The program can’t start because mini.scr 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 mini.scr error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these SCR errors affecting mini.scr will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using ProShow Producer 9.0.3797. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Photodex, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of mini.scr 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.

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 mini.scr error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

  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 mini.scr 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 mini.scr 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 mini.scr file version. We maintain a comprehensive database of 100% malware-free mini.scr files for every applicable version of ProShow Producer. Please follow the steps below to download and properly replace you file:

  1. Locate your Windows operating system version in the list of below "Download mini.scr Files".
  2. Click the appropriate "Download Now" button and download your Windows file version.
  3. Copy this file to the appropriate ProShow Producer folder location:
    Windows 10: C:\Program Files (x86)\Photodex\ProShow Producer\pxf\
    Windows 10: C:\Program Files (x86)\Photodex\ProShow Gold\pxf\
  4. Restart your computer.

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


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