How To Fix LogiLDA.dll and Logitech Download Assistant Errors
The easiest, and safest, way to fix LogiLDA.dll errors is to reinstall the related piece of computer equipment. This should reinstall the latest DLL files and fix any issues.
You may wish to uninstall the previous version first too – to be downloading to a ‘clean’ PC.
An alternative is download the missing file from Logitech – although this does not seem to be available from its site at present.
The other common fix, which we do not recommend, is to use one of the many DLL download sites. DLL errors are often more complex than just the file being missing (even if that’s the immediate error that is flagged) and so adding the file may not fix the problem.
In addition the files on these sites are often out of date, or even contain viruses, which could also cause problems.
Therefore, we recommend reinstalling the Logitech Download Assistant software to fix any LogiLDA.dll error.
