What are UPDTLINK.XLA Error Messages?


General UPDTLINK.XLA Runtime Errors

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

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\MSOffice\Excel\Library\UPDTLINK.XLA

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


Most XLA errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your UPDTLINK.XLA 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, UPDTLINK.XLA file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Office, system crash while loading or saving UPDTLINK.XLA, 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.

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

Download UPDTLINK.XLA Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


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