msvcr100_clr0400.dll Error Fix
What is a DLL?
DLL (Dynamic Link Library) files contain computer code and resources that can be used by multiple programs at the same time. This uses less system memory and helps your computer system run more efficiently. DLL files give program developers the ability to reuse code to add features to several programs without the need to write new code for each program.
There are many programs that require DLL files to function properly so when one of them is damaged or missing it will cause program crashes and poor system performance.
What is msvcr100_clr0400.dll?
Program developers using Microsoft C++ integrate the msvcr100_clr0400.dll file to the system registry to provide debug information useful in fixing software errors. This DLL links the functions needed for the debug version of a particular application.
The msvcr100_clr0400.dll file is designed to be a component of the Microsoft C Runtime library essentially as a preventive and cure mechanism for anticipated errors in applications. The information it contains is used to uncover details about the structure of an application which is important when troubleshooting a particular runtime error or even simple problems encountered by the application. The msvcr100_clr0400.dll file generates debug symbols essential for internal testing or getting a call stack among others.
There are different types of debug symbols that the msvcr100_clr0400.dll file can generate in C++ environment. Among these are the Common Object File Format (COFF), CodeView (CV), and Program Database (PDB). Microsoft adopts the CodeView format for its debug information and deploys it as embedded information in the object file or executable. Symbols generated in CodeView do not support the functions Edit and Continue but can implement FPO records line numbers and variables. Interestingly the Edit and Continue support is deemed not suitable for release configurations as it is used for applying code changes to an image during a debugging session. This function requires extra calls and extra space in the image.
The debug information provided by the msvcr100_clr0400.dll file is structured into several levels of granularity. It contains the frame pointer omission (FPO) records that give sufficient information for the programmer to find the next function information on the stack even without frame pointers. The msvcr100_clr0400.dll file also contains the function names where the names and addresses of functions are listed. It can show line numbers that locates the addresses associated with the lines in the C/C++ source files. Similarly it lists the global, static, and local variables.
Recommended fix if you are experiencing msvcr100_clr0400.dll error messages:
DLL files are important parts of your operating system and many programs require them to function. When these files become damaged or are missing it causes poor system performance and system crashes. To fix these problems the user must replace the damaged file with a valid working version. If a working version cannot be found the user may perform a reinstallation of their operating system.
