    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

    rundll32.exe error in windows 10

    This is caused by an entry in your Startup processes:

    • Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc keys together to open Task Manager
    • On the Startup Tab look for anything relating to this file (rundll32.exe)
    • If you find something related, select it and click 'Disable'

    If you did not find it there:

    • Press Windows + R keys together to open the Run Dialog
    • Type msconfig in the run dialog and hit enter
    • Click on the Services Tab of the resulting dialog
    • Check the box marked 'Hide all Microsoft Services'
    • Look for anything relating to this file (rundll32.exe)
    • If you find it, uncheck it
    • Click Apply and Reboot

    rundll32.exe error in windows 10

    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.

    Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.
