If you’re using Kaspersky, you need to make sure you update the actual Kaspersky software, not just the antivirus definitions. There has been a known issue with Kaspersky antivirus that cases this problem to occur. In some cases, you may have to uninstall a program and then reinstall it later on. If you have DivX or Nero installed on your computer, go ahead and update those to the latest versions too. You can download the latest version of Windows 7 Codec Pack.

We manually updated all the codecs to their latest versions including ffdshow, Windows 7 Codec Pack and others.

This client in particular liked to copy and rip stuff, so he had ffdshow installed plus some other codecs. Obviously since it was a video/picture problem, we thought it could be something with the current set of codecs installed. In this post, I’ll write out the different possible solutions and hopefully one of them will work for you.

The odd thing was that the error only came up when browsing video or picture files, not any other type of file.
