COM Surrogate error message when accessing a file or folder

COM Surrogate error message when accessing a file or folder

Maybe the contents of the folder where this error appeared are not associated with any type of media player on your computer. You can fix this by installing some media players that support the file types of the folder’s contents.

For example, installing DivX Plus on your computer will also install different video codecs for different video types. The DivX Plus Player that is included in the DivX Plus package supports these video formats:

• .avi
• .divx
• .xvid
• .mkv
• .mov
• .mp4
• .wmv
• .vob
• .mpeg/.mpg
• .asf
• .qt

And also, Windows Media Player that is already included in your Windows Vista also supports different media types: .asf, .asx, .wpl, .wm, .wmx, .wmd, .wmz, .wma, .wax, .wmv, .wvx, .cda, .avi, .wav, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpe, .m1v, .m2v, .mpv2, .mod, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpa, .mp3, .m3u, .mid, .midi, .rmi, .aif, .aifc, .aiff, .au, .snd, .dvr-ms, and others.

If you have no idea on what media player to install, check first the file extensions that were used on the files inside the folder. Then search the web for media players that support those file types.
