subject: Why Dlls Should Be Taken Away By A Registry Cleaner [print this page]


"One of the terms that generally pops up during discussions on cleaning the Windows registry is dll. However, not many people understand it and, therefore, take it for granted. DLL stands for Dynamic Link Library which is a set of files that we can find in our Windows registry. DLLs are used in place of codes for applications in our computer. These contain a memory of specific files that are kept and the program will automatically come out when someone will need the information.

These are sets of files that are stored in the Windows registry and it stands for Dynamic Link Library. DLLs are used in place of codes for applications in our computer. These contain a memory of certain files that are kept and the program will automatically come out when someone will need the information.

A dll is like a back up thread on the system for a program or file so that when it is needed, the information is automatically processed and put to use. It's a combination of work between dlls and executable files. If executable files are absent, then dlls won't be able to run. Certain actions are put to action by exe codes so that it can do all the necessary things needed.

A dll is like a back up thread on the system for a program or file so that when it is needed, the information is automatically processed and put to use. Dll's and exe's or executable files work together. Dlls won't be able to function without the executable files. Exe or execute codes put a certain function into action so that it will be able to do the motions or the process that is required. Therefore, dll's and exe's need each other and work together for programs to work properly.

The absence of these files will mean that programs that we need will become inaccessible. When programs are uninstalled incompletely, programs with dll's happen. Because the exe file or the program is no longer there, the dll's are now empty and serve no purpose.

Problems arise with dll's if programs are uninstalled improperly. When exe files are removed, dll files become useless. When there are too many dll's in the registry, they will tend to delay the computer's performance. Instead of just focusing on useful files, the computer will have to also do its rounds with the empty dll's and end up wasting its energies. Hence, the computer slows down. But, of course, with the right registry cleaner, these empty dll's can be removed so they don't cause delays when processing information.
