Re: Windows media player stopped working
Hello everyone.
A while ago, I got a COM SURROGATE STOPPED WORKING error. I was lucky enough to bumpp into a forum post that was very helpful. Unfortunately I no longer have the url. But I got rid of the COM SURROGATE error. And last week I encountered the WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER STOPPED WORKING error. And also WINAMP STOPPED WORKING.
So, the soluiton is to add the exe files to the Data Prevention....
1. Open Control Panel
2. Open System
3. Open Advanced System Settings in the left hand list
4. On the Advanced tab, select Settings button against the Performance section
5. Open the Data Execution Prevention tab and there ADD the erroring executable file. Be sure to look in the correct folders.
And repeat these steps whenever you get the ### STOPPED WORKING error.
I hope I managed to add the attachment with some screenshots for ease of use.
Good luck! |
