@MsBrit20 and @stevepaulquinn ,
I am going to post a few more informational insights to continue to support @stevepaulquinn in this crusade; this discussion is getting me absrobed in trying to figure out what are the roots of the exception error.
If you are a programmer you may find my feedback too basic, but for the sake of all the power-users here that are trying to understand the problem (myself included) it is important to identify the following:
////////// Runtime Errors - May occur as soon as a program executes or while it is running soon after it was launched successfully (not before).
Therefore, runtime errors are identified as possible issues with runtime libraries that, for example, may lead to memory leaks (incorrect memory addressing space for a program to store its instructions) due to the system libraries not being able to facilitate the operating system with the resources that programs (or applications) request at any given time.
Another great example of a runtime error can be identified when a user neglects to maintain the recommended (or optional) system updates. This indifference towards system maintenance eventually leads to corrupt or outdated dependencies. The improper sequence of updates, skipping updates, or intentionally failing to comply with the recommended guidance of software vendors (i.e. applying system patches as needed and as soon as they become available), will likely handicap any program to execute the missing algorithm (or code implementaion) that was meant to improve error handling and to actually catch exceptions before they're thrown.
////////// Exception Errors - Exceptions are thrown when various Runtime errors exist
////////// Logical Errors - An erratic behavior of a feature or an event that doesn't execute as it was intended by the software vendor, for example. When these errors happen the program doesn't necessarily freeze or crash, nor it terminates unexpectedly. A good example of logical errors can be observed when Acrobat users report to the Adobe communities that they are missing working toolbars, application launcher icons appearing on the desktop after every update (regardless of how many times they manually delete such desktop icons), or users that are reporting a PDF document opened with Adobe Acrobat that displays a look and feel of a WindowsXP or Windows 7 decoration theme, yet they are using a brand new Microsoft Windows 11 computer
////////// Syntax Errors (as opposed to all the other types of erros mentioned earlier) - Are basically program alerts that warn a programmer while developing a piece of code. For instance, due to employing improper sysntax in a line of code or instructing a function to execute something but using the incorrect object method(s). In this particular error type, the programmer has the ability to address these errors in real-time before compiling and test-driving the software for the first time.
