When programmers write a program that other people can use, they have to do that using a so-called programming language. The code that they write is translated by a special program (a compiler) into a language that the computer can understand and execute. When the programmer makes a spelling error, the compiler can warn the programmer ask him/her to correct the error. These errors are called compile-time errors.
Some errors cannot be caught this way because they occur only when the program is actually being used (or being ran). These errors are called run-time errors.

There are different file types in the computer.
When u run an executable file (.exe) it runs inside the system to execute the disired function.
But when it has a problem in opening a file or loading a file etc., while running it will show u a message called runtime error.

Run-time error occurs when the program you just started tried to run a file which was either corrupt or was being used by another program.
This is related to priority settings in the operating system
e.g. SVCHOST.exe in windows tries to run different files using its extensions and if a corresponding file fails to load it can cause system to restart or shutdown. This loop hole was used by MS-Blast worm two years ago.
