COM Surrogate!!!

[HunterKiller]

Is there anyway to remove this Microsh!t maleware? It's attached it's dll.exe to some of my games and they will not run without it. I didn't have this issue until M$ prepared everyone for W10. Now, it's screwing my system up and other things as well. I tried getting help from online with my AVS / Security and they refuse to disable it due to it being a Microsh!t program. Well, it's pure f@%^&g garbage.

When having issue in game, I open Task Manager and there it is, and whenever I end the process, the game quits playing and I'm back to my Library.

You should... just completely reinstall Windows itself. make backups of whatever your important files, reinstall.

Trust me, it works most of time. Looking for other solutions when your issue is very complicated tend to take longer time than fixing it with reinstalling.



Also: Without knowing what games you are having problem with, chances of people being able to help you is pretty.... small.

That would be a good idea but, how can I be sure that, this program won't be installed as a 'plugin' once it starts all the MS updates after I reinstall the OS?


On the other had,
This may be one way I got this plugin. When viewing gifs I've saved, it always tries to open them with Explorer of which, I don't use Internet Explorer to open items of the like yet, Windows, uses it automatically without my permission. I never use IE to surf the net and wish I could just get rid of it.

This is another time I've noticed COM Surrogate running in TM.

Hello, I know this thread is old, but I just found the solution. In reality, the "COM Surrogate" error occurs because you’re trying to delete an image while logged into the wrong Steam account. (We are two users, and I just deleted all the files because they were taking up too much space.) I simply logged into the Steam account that owns the photo.
