• Unknown problem caused media player to close and that to protect my Media Player Windows has disabled skins

  Original title: "skins".
  I recently downloaded a lot of skins from the microsoft Web site, and it worked very well for about an hour. Then I saw a skin called 'come back' I don't not download but recalled seeing in my default skins that were already installed. I wanted to see what it was and when I did caused a problem which I can't specify because the notification window remained only until fairly long for me to see (in a nutshell) "unknown problem caused media player to close and to protect my Media Player Windows has disabled skins. Now, I spent over 3 hours to try each answer in the forums for this issue and not one worked for me. I am running Windows Vista Home Basic and I can't find a way to reactivate my skin so that I can use only skins working know is the company and changing the skin that caused the problem. I tried deleting and reinstalling all the skins again, but again does not help. I tried to do a right click on the skin to go to properties to activate as suggested in the forums, but when I right click on it nothing happens. So now I have like 20 downloaded skins but the only way that they work is if I download again and choose to view them, but if I try to change the playlist or switch to full mode then it goes to firm skin and I download it again to get the one I want. I am so frustrated with this problem which I think should be a very easy thing to fix, but nothing I try works. Please help me. Thanks for any help you may be able to provide.

• Windows Media Player starts to play the CD/DVD (in any tab) with AutoPlay disabled

  On any tab, Windows Media Player 11 (WMP11) starts automatically play a CD/DVD when inserted.  Regardless it's 'Take no Action' set for each media or device on the AutoPlay control panel.  The OS is Vista Ultimate 64-bit.  The only modification or plug-in is Windows Live Messenger Music Plug-in that has been disabled.

  Steps to reproduce (in the tab extract)

  1. The default value for all devices and media types 'take no Action' (via Control Panel)
  2. Open WMP11
  3. Change to tab extract, click on the drop down arrow
  4. Make sure that "Never" is selected under ' Rip CD when inserted automatically "
  5. Insert an audio CD
  6. You will notice that WMP11 won't start Ripper but starts to play

  This isn't the desired system response.  I want the player to display the information of the album but not start playing.  Currently, I have to manually stop CD/DVD every time.  This behavior produces on each tab not only the tab extract.  However, this behavior does not occur if I play any format of media when you insert a CD/DVD.

  I have a number of albums with information that WMP does not reflect accurately or replaced with incorrect catalog data.  Before the tear, I want to fix the information.

  To be clear, what follows has already been done and checked:

  1. Go to the control panel
  2. Select "Hardware and sound"
  3. Select 'AutoPlay'
  4. Make sure "AutoPlay for all media and devices use" is checked
  5. Select 'take no Action' for each item listed
  6. Select 'Save'

  Please try my instructions in the following thread:

  They are for Windows 7, but I just checked that they work too for Vista.

• disable automatic selection of media player

  I don't want the auto playlist in Win 7 Media Player.  How can I disable the unwanted constantly updated? I read how to create and edit and save, but not how to disable.  Thanking you in advance!

  I don't want the auto playlist in Win 7 Media Player. How can I disable the unwanted constantly updated? I read how to create and edit and save, but not how to disable. Thanking you in advance.

  Sorry for not being clear enough. On the tab reader, under options, it says "Customize updates and player settings '. You MUST choose one of the 3. I DON'T WANT automatic updates. I don't want a music player to update anything. I made changes to the titles of mp3 files and updating process apparently ignores "apply media information changes" and returns info orig. that makes me do 'i' of messages when you try to play a playlist I created. So if the selection is long of 20 songs, after the update process it cannot long 8 songs. In addition, this has happened so many times, I tried your assistance. If there is no solution, please advise anyway. I want all the * information provided by internet update.

  (1) you cannot remove the automatic selection feature, you can only add, change, or delete specific autoplaylists.

  (2) this setting search updates media player.  It doesn't affect or change your content (mp3) or playlists.
  If you don't want playlists this automatic update, create autoplaylists not... create regular playlists.  They will change only if manually change you them.
