Start Windows in Safe Mode to complete any of the following steps if you're unable to access Windows normally due to the error. Restore the file from the Recycle Bin. The easiest possible cause of a "missing" ogg.dll file is that you've mistakenly deleted it.

If you suspect so, but you've already emptied the Recycle Bin, you may be able to recover the file with a free file recovery program. Undeleting this file is a smart idea only if you're confident you've deleted the file yourself and that it was working properly before you did that. Run a virus/malware scan of your entire system. Some of these errors could be related to a virus or other malware infection on your computer that has damaged the DLL file.

It's even possible the error you're seeing is related to a hostile program that's masquerading as the file. Use System Restore to undo recent system changes. If you suspect that the error was caused by a change made to an important file or configuration, a System Restore could solve the problem.

Reinstall the program that uses the OGG DLL file. If the error occurs when you use a particular program, reinstalling that software should replace the file. Try your best to complete this step.

Reinstalling the program that provides this file, if possible, is a likely solution to this error. Update the drivers for hardware devices that might be related to ogg.dll. If, for example, you're receiving a "The file ogg.dll is missing" error when you play a 3D video game, try updating the drivers for your video card. This file may or may not be related to video cards—this was just an example.

The key here is to pay very close attention to the context of the error and troubleshoot accordingly. Roll back a driver to a previously installed version if the errors began after updating a particular hardware device's driver. Run the sfc /scannow System File Checker command to replace a missing or corrupt copy of the file.

If this DLL file is provided by Microsoft, the System File Checker tool should restore it. Install any available Windows updates. Many service packs and other patches replace or update some of the hundreds of Microsoft distributed DLL files on your computer.

Ogg.dll could be included in one of those updates. Test your memory and then test your hard drive. We've left the majority of hardware troubleshooting to the last step, but your computer's memory and hard drive are easy to test and are the most likely components that might cause ogg.dll errors as they fail. If the hardware fails any of your tests, replace the memory or replace the hard drive as soon as possible.

Repair your installation of Windows. If the individual troubleshooting advice above is unsuccessful, performing a startup repair or repair installation should restore all Windows DLL files to their working versions. Use a free registry cleaner to repair DLL related issues in the registry. A free registry cleaner program might be able to help by removing invalid registry entries that might be causing the error. We rarely recommend the use of registry cleaners.

This will erase everything from the hard drive and install a fresh copy of Windows. If none of the steps above correct the ogg.dll error, this should be your next course of action. All the information on your hard drive will be erased during a clean install.
