What is a COM Surrogate?
COM surrogates are an integral part of the Windows operating system. These are small programs that help Windows run smoothly. You can think of it as a translator – it translates the code written in one language into another. For example, let’s say you want to use a particular program called “MyApp”. If MyApp doesn’t support Windows 10, you won’t be able to download it. In such cases, a COM surrogate helps the app work on Windows 10.
