Windows 10: cannot get rid of rundll32.exe

Hey guys,


some rundll32 processes are doing whatever in my computer and this seems to be very important to them, so that I cannot work comfortably. With Autoruns64.exe I could delete some processes(see this post), but some malicious ones are still there. sfc /scannow didnt help.


Any ideas please?


System info: Lenovo yoga with i7 6560 processor, 16gb RAM and very big SSD drive


Thank you very much

Hi Aaron,

Rundll32.exe is an application that is used to launch functionality stored in shared .dll files, because
DLL (Dynamic Link Library) files can't be launched directly.

Here are methods that we can do to resolve Rundll32.exe errors in Windows 10:

Method 1 – Replace the corrupted file using Startup Repair:

• In the search box, type Recovery options. Double-click Recovery options.
• Go to Advanced startup, click Restart now.
• A blue window will pop-up, select Troubleshooting.
• Select Advanced options > Startup Settings >
  Restart.
• On the new list with settings that will appear, select Enable debugging.

Method 2 – Use the scannow command:

• In the search menu, type cmd.
• Right-click Command Prompt >Run as administrator.
• Type the command sfc/scannow and press Enter.

The sfc/scannow command will scan all protected system files, and replace corrupted files.

Method 3 – Replace the corrupted Rundll file:

• Download a copy of the Rundll32.exe file from the Internet.
• Replace the missing or corrupted Rundll file with the new one.
  • Go to windows\system32\rundll32.exe.
  • Paste the new rundll32.exe file.

NOTE: Downloading a copy of the Rundll32.exe
file from the Internet may cause system issues, virus and malware infection.


The entire risk arising out of the use of the downloaded file remains with you.
