Failed To Open Dlllist.txt For Reading Error Code 2 Jun 2026

Error "Failed to open dlllist.txt for reading Error code: 2"

If you are writing a program that opens dlllist.txt :

: Right-click the game in your library > Properties > Installed Files > Verify integrity of game files .

While Dependency Walker is the most common trigger, this error can appear in other contexts: failed to open dlllist.txt for reading error code 2

Use GetModuleFileName(NULL, ...) to get the .exe path, then build the full path to the file instead of relying on the working directory.

While dlllist.exe from is the most common source, the error can also appear in:

dlllist.exe /accepteula @dlllist.txt

The correct approach is to use redirection for input , not @ :

This public link is valid for 7 days and shares a thread, including any personal information you added. This link or copies made by others cannot be deleted. If you share with third parties, their policies apply. Can’t copy the link right now. Try again later.

echo. > dlllist.txt

But dlllist.exe does not support stdin redirection. So the proper fix is: unless you explicitly need a response file.

Then run your original command again.
