• How can I find the current drivers for Windows Media Player?

  When I try to open a file, I often get the message: your device uses an outdated driver is no longer supported by Windows Media Player.  Then, the file may or may not play.  How can I find the driver update.  I use Windows 7 Home Premium on an HP laptop.

  A .lnk file is a standard shortcut in Windows. The shortcuts are very often placed on the desktop, or in a control panel application such as Windows Start menu Launcher.

  Looks like that file Associations may be corrupted on your system.

• Is there a possibility that MusicBrainz can be added as a data provider for Windows Media Player

  When you use Windows Media Player, I was hurt a lot to identify my music. A lot of music I have is not available in the Microsoft music meta service database. What gives? Would be nice if Microsoft could be added to their database. MusicBrainz is a big data provider for Windows Media Player and would make it easier for information about the available media. Data MusicBrainz are permitted in the public domain and some under Creative Commons (CC) license. I don't think that Rovi has a contract saying to Microsoft data to use. I can cite other data in addition to the AMG providers: Journal of CD Japan, CD newspaper China, ZACR DBS and feedback from users. I can almost guarantee you if Microsoft used the MusicBrainz data, Windows Media Player would be much easier for the Organization of the music. Data MusicBrainz are much better quality than WMP user feedback data.

• Just installed update for Windows Media Player 11 and now, all the songs I had in my library before the update, I get the message you need a license to play these songs.

  These songs have been copied to my computer from the CD that I bought at retail, and have played several times.  Is there a process where they can be reinstated? I don't know if it's the right word, but I hate having to download individual licenses for these songs. And why doesn't IE throw me on the internet as soon as the download license screen happens?  Do I have to uninstall the update?

  Hello

  1. What is the exact error message you get?
  2. what version of Internet Explorer you are using?
  3. do you have an error message when Internet Explorer throws you off the screen?
  4. you remember the update that caused the problem to occur?

  Follow the steps in this article and see if the problem still occurs.

  I'm missing codecs for windows media player 11.0.6002.18311 any way I can reinstall it or get download missing codecs?

  Finally, I fixed my problem of codec.  It turns out that it is the 6.9.2.26 codec DIVX version.  I uninstalled all DIVX software and re-installed 6.8.5 and now everything works.  Windows Media Player 11 now play AVI encoded with mjpg, as well as Adobe first Elements 4 camera.  In addition, first elements will now load a DX50 encoded AVI, who had stopped working as well.

  I wanted to just send you this.

  ========================================
  I was wondering... you are totally unable to download the file
  on your hard drive? Or... you can download the file to your hard drive
  by car, but simply cannot display it?

  If you right click the executable for Windows Media Player and
  in the menu choose... Properties / Compatibility tab is...
  Windows 95, chosen for Compatibility Mode? If_Yes_try
  unchecking the box / apply / OK.

  It might be the next thread deals with the same issue...
