I just updated to 8.1 and now I'm getting the error 

"There was a problem starting C:\Windows\System32\LogiLDA.dll

The specified module could not be found"

This happens every time I sign into my account.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I'm a "ME TOO"....are we all using a Logitech M185 mouse or similar? (...system32/LogiLDA.....)

I just updated my Surface Pro to 8.1.....I think I'll remove the Logitech mouse antenna(?) from the usb port and restart and see if I get the same message.

Nope, still get the same fail message for running that .dll

 

We still need help!

Hello,

I'll just upgraded my Windows 8 to Windows 8.1.

Now I'll recive the LogiDLA message at startup/logon.

My fix.

Launch the Taskmanager.

Under TAB Startup search for LogiLDA

Right mouse button an disable.

Message popup resolved.

Stop here if you dont know the Windows registry.

But if you know go to the next step.

Open the commandprompt and type Regedit

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Find the entry Logitech Download Assistant

Select it, right mouse button and Remove.

Fix without having to open regedit or do any registry entries

  1. Insert Unified Logitech Dongle into an open USB port on the machine generating the LogiLDA.dll error
  2. Machine regonizes the ULD and loads appropriate software
  3. Verify that the mouse/trackball works through the ULD
  4. If ok, then
  5. Reboot
  6. After the machine restarts, login
  7. Error no longer appears

    note!

    I first disabled the logiLDA service in the taskmanager startup tab like in the answer of MarcelB68. 

    I then saw this answer(AATONG) en plugged in my mouse dongle and it crashed my PC. Restart, but after logging in to windows it crashed again. Only after removing the dongle my pc was able to boot OK again. Then searched the service again(in startup tab of taskmanager), it is now called "Logitech Download assistent". Problem is solved. (Had no message on first good startup after removing the dongle -that was right after a crash. Another clean restart just to be sure, still good)

    My advice: If you (still) have the Logitech dongle, make sure logiLDA service is acive when plugging in te dongle. If you dont have a dongle, use Marcel's method to stop the service from running.

    Good luck, Geert

    (using sharkoon drakonia mouse on this pc, logitech performance mouse mx on other pc, but was previously used on this pc. Also used that dongle to fix the problem)
