    the action cant be completed because the file is open in preview handler surrogate host


    I use Nuanace pdf Converter and am operating on Microsoft 365 Windows Pro 10.

    This error message has just started appearing. It appears when I try to rename, move or delete a pdf file.

    Can you assist?
