What are Media_db.sig Error Messages?


General Media_db.sig Runtime Errors

Media_db.sig file errors often occur during the startup phase of Adobe Captivate, but can also occur while the program is running. These types SIG errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while Adobe Captivate is running. Here are some of the most common Media_db.sig runtime errors:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Most SIG errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your Media_db.sig file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Adobe Captivate), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, Media_db.sig file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Adobe Captivate, system crash while loading or saving Media_db.sig, 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.

Download Media_db.sig Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


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