  Hi DragLee,

   
  Windows Media Player is the default or integrated drive in Windows Vista. It can't be uninstalled or reinstalled. However, if a system file is missing or damaged, we can run sfc (System File Checker) scan to find and fix system files corrupted.
   
  Try these steps and check the result.
  Step 1: Scan of the sfc
  1. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.
  2. type the following command and press ENTER: sfc/scannow
  3 restart the computer once the analysis is complete.
  4. check if the problem persists.
   
  For more information, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
   
  Step 2: If the problem persists, perform the system restore to a date where the media player was working fine
  1. Click Start, type system restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
  2. in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.
  3. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.
  4. click on finish.
   
  See which is the system restore?
  I hope this helps.

• How to play .asx files in Windows Media Player

  original title; Can I play a video file of .asx with WMP? or if not, how to play with this extension .asx files?

  Can I play a video file of .asx with WMP? or if not, how to play with this extension .asx files?

  When I try to play the file, WMP shows error then update says "video codec".

  How then can I get this update for the video codec?

  Thank you, Michael Phelps 907

  Hi Mike,.

  an .asx file is not a media file. It is a file that contains a pointer to a content online. So if you are unable to read a .asx file and are able to play other files using Windows Media Player so the best thing is to open the .asx, a Notepad file. When you open the .asx using Notepad, you will see a link that starts by http: and so on. Please copy this link and go to Windows Media Player. On the Windows Media Player window, press the Alt key on the keyboard and click file and Open url. Paste the link and check if Windows Media Player is able to open the link. If she opens the link this is a problem with the formatting of the .asx file and if it does not open the link then it is a problem with the server online of the .asx file. It could be that it is deleted from the server.

  Hope this information helps. Keep us informed on the status of the issue.

• Cannot change the location of the RIP file in Windows Media Player after losing Windows Home Server

  I got my place to rip on my windows-based server that had catestrophic failure. So I went to another WHS that I have. But since then, I could not change the location of the file rip in my Media Player.

  It seems that the problem is that it fails to find the location of the old server, gone, when I switch to tab EXTRACT music in WMP options. I say this because it take a long time to draw only a tab. And when I click the button change under music Rip to this place, it does nothing. I get no errors, but nothing happens. It is as if I never pressed the button. There is no delay or anything. And I can go and do other things immediately.

  How can I convince Media Player than the location should not be verified so I can put a new location to rip music to?

  Hello

  Thanks for the reply. I tried the steps you recommended. But unfortunately, it has not changed the problem.

  However, she, it was pretty clear that something of the old MSS was always in the way. You could tell by the delay that made the selection of menu. So I went in MP, to organize - manage the music library. And sure enough, still listed as the default location is the old MSS. I've selected and tap on delete. Without delay, he removed and automatically changed the default location to a local drive. Problem solved! Now I can put my location of rip at ESM again and all is well again.

  Thanks again for your help.
