    Well I'm getting this error since morning: binkw32.dll is missing. Hence I cannot play any game in my PC.

    I don't have any technical knowledge so I wanna ask is it fine to download the dll file from sites like https://dlldownloads.com/binkw32-dll/ and replace in my PC ?

    Or do you have any other solution for this error?

    Please let me know.

    You can try scanning system files for errors.

    Press Windows key + X, click Command Prompt (Admin). (or it may say Windows Powershell (Admin)
    In the Command Prompt, copy/paste the following command, and then press ENTER: sfc /scannow

    It will scan and repair corrupt system files.

    You can also see if this helps. https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-fix-binkw32-dll-is-missing-errors-2623103
