    “The specified module could not be found” error usually shows on Windows startup and warm up, but it may also pop up when working with various programs or trying to connect to the Internet. Just like the majority of Windows errors,[1] this one might be caused
    by a bunch of reasons, starting from virus attack[2] and finishing with corrupted system files.
