When creating software products, it is necessary to be able to clearly and efficiently handle all the necessary terminologies. For example, take a word like initialization. What is it, you know? I doubt it, otherwise you would not read this article. Therefore, let's look at what is meant by this term, what types are, and also analyze a few problems that may arise when using electronics.
What is initialization?
This is the name of the processes of creating, activating, preparing for work and determining the necessary parameters so that the application can work efficiently and without errors. This is a mandatory step to bring any device or program to a state where it can be used. The initialization action itself can be directed externally relative to the object of influence. In most cases, it means only setting the necessary parameters, as well as the rules of work by which the program will function.
Examples
Let's look at what initialization is. What is it? It will be easiest to understand using a few real world examples:
- Under the initialization of the magnetic disk of the hard drive understand its formatting. A recording of control information (volume labels, track descriptors, and similar manipulations) can also be attributed here.
- Initialization of a program means setting the necessary variables or setting the program variables (counters, addresses, switches, pointers) to zero before the application is executed. Everything is installed according to what is being done for this type of software or contained as instructions in the file itself.
- Initialization for printing subsystem data to the printer. This is a definition that implies the following: on which device it is necessary to transfer data to paper and conduct an accounting of all the necessities. So, you should determine the print format, extension, whether to use color (if any) and other parameters. First, a control signal is supplied to the device and a scan of its capabilities is carried out in order to make the initial printer setup and offer the user an option that can be carried out using the available technology.
And now let's look at a case in practice of launching an application. Suppose there is an initialization error when starting the game. The base was chosen Sims 3 - a fairly popular application in which you want to control a person, creating him a secure life.
What causes in Sims-3 (initialization error)?
The most common version of the problem is 0 × 0175dcbb. This number is used to indicate problems with the initialization of the application. It may arise due to the fact that the base game conflicts with the add-ons, mods, and video card drivers that were installed on the computer. Moreover, you are not insured even when buying a licensed game - if there is a problem, the license will not lead to its automatic solution.
What if the error 0 × 0175dcbb is already there?
So, an error has occurred. Now let's figure out how we can remove it. Although we will consider the game, but many of the knowledge written below can come in handy when working with serious applications. Remember that the oldest problem is archaic software components. First of all, we are interested in video card drivers. They can be downloaded on manufacturers' websites, which we actually did. It will also be useful to install or upgrade to the latest version of the NET Framework - it is advisable to do this from the developer's resource, which is Microsoft.
Now, let's note the most popular causes of the problem: additional mods that were written by third-party developers. In such cases, alas, you have to remove the extension itself. If there is information because of which you do not want to do this, then you can simply rename the Mods folder. If an error occurs after installation, you must uninstall the program itself using the uninstaller and reinstall it again. If all this did not help (and this often happens), then we can conclude that the disk where the game is located is damaged. And the only prudent decision is to exchange it (or download the pirated version from the torrent).
Conclusion
What to install on your computer is up to you. But from now on, before adding content developed by third-party people to a stable working product, you need to think carefully and show considerable attention to the quality of the downloaded add-ons. Because there may be an error initializing the update, and the possibility of rollback is usually not provided. And then you have to delete the entire program and install it again. If it was decided to do so, then it is necessary to take care of the safety of the accumulated data. A copy of them must be placed somewhere in a safe and secluded place, for example, on the desktop or flash drive. That's all, we have examined in detail the initialization. This is what you probably understood. After all, we examined not only the textual component, but also examined several specific examples.
