Why does DtsApo4Service.exe Keep Crashing?
Since DtsApo4Service.exe runs in the background, it may become corrupted by third-party antivirus software or applications. When background services crash, it is primarily due to corrupted executable files. This typically happens when third-party applications interfere with background apps and services. Moreover, there are also other causes, such as the possibility of your audio drivers being corrupted, which may cause a miscommunication between the audio drivers and the DTS application.
1. Update the audio driver specifically for DtsApo
It is possible that your audio driver is not compatible with the DTS software. Therefore, try installing an audio driver specifically for DTS from the Microsoft catalog to fix this issue. To do so, follow these steps:
2. Reinstall the audio driver from the manufacturer’s
You can also try installing the audio driver from the manufacturer’s site because you will find only compatible drivers there. If there is a problem with the audio driver that prevents the DtsApo4Service.exe from running or communicating, you should install a compatible driver to see if it rectifies the problem. To install the driver from the manufacturer’s site, first, you need to figure out the model number of your laptop or motherboard if using a PC.
3. Run the Audio Troubleshooter
Troubleshooters are designed to fix problems with components such as Windows update, network adapters, and audio, among others. When a user runs the troubleshooter, it first checks whether the driver is enabled or not, then it checks the registry files and other requirements needed for the component to function properly. To run the audio troubleshooter, follow these steps:
4. Use Realtek driver
If the problem persists, you can use the Realtek audio driver if you are not using it. Realtek audio drivers can be installed on any device, so if you are not using a Realtek audio driver, try it to see if the problem is fixed or not. To install the Realtek audio driver, follow the steps: Before following the steps, make sure to uninstall the DTS audio driver from the device manager.
5. Reinstall DTS Software
Finally, the last method to fix this issue is to reinstall the DTS software. Reinstalling the DTS software can work if there is a problem with the DTS software, crashing the DtsApo4Service.exe service. To do so, simply follow the steps:
