What are extension.txt Error Messages?


General extension.txt Runtime Errors

extension.txt file errors often occur during the startup phase of Crimson Editor, but can also occur while the program is running. These types TXT errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while Crimson Editor is running. Here are some of the most common extension.txt runtime errors:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files (x86)\Emerald Editor Community\Crimson Editor SVN286M\link\extension.txt

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.


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

  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

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

GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve extension.txt problems.

Download extension.txt Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying extension.txt to your appropriate Windows system directory. Ingyu Kang typically does not release Crimson Editor TXT 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 extension.txt and all other TXT files for Crimson Editor. An incorrectly installed TXT file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
