What are UmxCfg.exe Error Messages?


UmxCfg.exe Runtime Errors

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

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

Some of the most common UmxCfg.exe errors include:

  • UmxCfg.exe - Bad Image.

Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Finding the source of the UmxCfg.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting UmxCfg.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Tiny Firewall. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Tiny Software, Inc., conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of UmxCfg.exe 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.
