This is probably somewhat off-topic, but where would I find a list of
what each error code in WindowsError means?

Assuming it's a Win32 error code, winerror.h from the Platform SDK holds the answer. One version is linked below, it's in theory out of date (2003) but all the best known codes are present.

For example, "WindowsError [error 5] Access is denied" matches ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED (5L).

HRESULTS may also crop up (e.g. E_FAIL, 0x80040005) which are harder to list exhaustively since subsystems and COM components may roll their own codes of various sorts; but common ones are present in winerror.h.

All the best,
