Quite often, many users of Windows-based computer systems pay attention to a certain service in the process tree in the form of the dynamic library KERNELBASE.dll. The error of this module is a very common phenomenon. What is most sad, it arises at the most inopportune moment. Now we will consider how to deal with it with the simplest methods in different situations.
What is the KERNELBASE.dll library and what is it responsible for?
For some reason, many users believe that the dynamic library in most cases is mainly associated with printing documents from various programs that are part of the Microsoft Office suite. This is not true. Library error can appear in modern games.
The service itself, launched in this form, represents the client base of the kernel of applications that use the API (programming interface). So this service has a rather conditional relation to printing, although the error of this database most often manifests itself when printing documents or when trying to send it to fax.
KERNELBASE.dll: service error and its causes
As a rule, failures in the library itself in most cases are related to the damage or missing file in the system. As already clear, this is the KERNELBASE.dll dynamic library. Error code 01BC1000 indicates an attempt to access the file. Sometimes a text like Access Violation is displayed in the error message itself, and the address and the failed module are also indicated. If you translate the message verbatim, we get the following: "Violation of access rights" (or "Attempted forced access").
However, this does not mean at all that the user does not have administrator rights at the moment. Just the specified module in the registered location is either absent or damaged as a result of external exposure, for example, during virus attacks.
KERNELBASE.dll error: how to fix in the simplest ways?
In the simplest case, to correct the situation, it is strongly recommended to check the system for viruses or malicious codes with some powerful anti-virus scanner, preferably a portable type that does not require installation in the system.
If no viruses are detected, you can try to restore the "OS" from the control point. You only need to know exactly when the KERNELBASE.dll module error occurred, and select the recovery point that preceded this event.
However, this approach may not always work. In this case, most experts recommend accessing Internet resources and downloading the original KERNELBASE.dll file for the installed system, taking into account its modification and capacity, and then placing the downloaded file in the System32 folder of the Windows root directory (it also exists in 64-bit systems). If there is already such a file in the specified location, it should be replaced. The system may issue a message that you must have administrator rights to perform such an operation. We simply agree, after which copying is done without problems.
After this, the new module must be registered in order for it to work correctly. To do this, the regsvr32 KERNELBASE.dll command is written in the Run menu (Win + R), and the enter key is pressed. Next, we just restart the computer, and the error disappears.
Using specialized software
In principle, you can not do such things, but go a simpler way, involving the use of special programs to automatically search for damaged or missing system libraries like Microsoft Fix It! or DLL Suite.
After scanning, the program itself will determine what is missing, download the necessary files from the Internet (and from official resources), and then it will also independently integrate the downloaded modules into the system.
APPCRASH Error Fix Tips
No less common is the failure of APPCRASH (error KERNELBASE.dll, esent.dll, nt.dll, explorer.exe, etc.). True, this applies to modern computer games, and a violation of the KERNELBASE.dll library is a special case.
Of course, you can try to correct the situation by the above methods, but here you should take into account the specifics of the games. For them to work correctly, you need to install the latest versions or updates of some critical packages and services.
In most cases, this is the latest version of DirectX, an update to the Microsoft .NET Framework and Microsoft Visual C ++, including the Runtime Pack. Without installing these required components, the game may not start at all, and errors with different variations will appear again and again.
Conclusion
That, in fact, is all. We examined a service that runs as a dynamic library running in the background - KERNELBASE.dll. The error, as can be seen from the above material, is eliminated quite simply. Naturally, a beginner or a user who does not have the necessary knowledge can be advised to use automatic utilities, moreover they will download absolutely all the missing libraries, although for special cases when errors are solely related to the KERNELBASE.dll component, you can do it yourself by downloading the module and registering it in system. As for games, without installing some required software packages, no matter how you try, the error will not be fixed in most cases.
