Can I uninstall and reinstall my Windows Media Player 11?

Hey guys, I think that I am currently using Windows Media Player 11. I move and change my music and playlists, and recently my reader gives me a lot of grief. It's now at the point where I can't even add new music to the player. I heard it's pretty common online and that to remedy this I just had to uninstall and then reinstall my Media Player, but none of the above work. Y at - there a way to uninstall the drive, and it is even necessary? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Your MP3 player should have 2 settings - MSC that should allow the player to be used as a

    Hello

    Having too many CD/DVD programs can cause strange problems, especially if they're loading of parts of
    themselves at the start because they will be competing for resources. This does not mean that this issue has been
    caused by those, however, it's a possibility depending on which and how many you have installed.

    You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
    Playback of CD and DVD). So it is not unusual for parts from 1 or 2 to not work so that others do
    correctly.

    Burning at low speed, or by using the master could help. A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

    Brand of the CD or DVD drive can also be the problem. Low quality (cheap brands) are always problematic.

    CD/DVDs have a tolerance + - and your can read/write on the edge outside these discs
    tolerances. They may be delivered, but it is generally more economical to replace the disk.

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    Hi Query1000,

    Since you have Windows media player 11 on the system, you can uninstall the update of security for Windows media player 9. This will also help increase disk space.
