Error message "your use of media rights have been corrupted or are no longer valid" with Windows Media Player
Original title: Media Player
When I download www.BBC.co.ukto TV programs play offline Media player will not let me play with the following error message
"Your media usage rights were corrupted or are no longer valid. This can happen if you have hardware components in your computer.
Indeed, I've replaced my CPU with an i7 Ivy bridge. But no where I can find how to fix these media rights.
Thanks for help
You must also have no hidden system files to find the correct DRM folder that I seem to have two! I've renamed the new one who showed and delete the other empties. This multimedia player reload the DRM folder with rights new media helped then and now can play the downloaded movies.

Windows Media Player error message says that I don't have the media usage rights acquisition.
Original title: Windows Media Player
Am not able to play music in Windows Media Player to the library after the transfer of music from another computer. Error message says that I don't have the media usage rights acquisition.
Hello
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community and we give the opportunity to help you.
Cause of the error:
Windows Media Player uses Microsoft Digital Rights Management (DRM) to protect the rights of content owners who protect their music or video products in this manner. You must have usage rights required to play, burn, or sync protected content.
How to upgrade the DRM license?
By default, Windows Media Player will automatically attempt to acquire the rights of use in silence unless the server requires some input on your part (for example, registration or tax information). You can disable the automatic rights acquisition. In this case, you will be asked to obtain the rights for any new content that requires them. To prevent Windows Media Player from acquiring rights automatically, do the following:
a. click on the arrow on the now playing tab, and then click Other Options.
b. click on the Privacy tab, and clear the automatically check if protected files need to be refreshed check.
Please note that this setting affects not acquisition of rights of use of online stores.
Which settings affect privacy in Windows Media Player?

Hi @xandux,
I see by your post printing went on the right side, you tried a new cartridge and have the same results. I can help you today.
I would like to do a hard reset to see if that will solve the problem.
Let the printer and disconnect the printer cable and the wall socket for 60 seconds.
Reconnect the power cable to the output of the printer and the wall, and not a surge protector.
This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.Follow the steps is this document to see if it will help resolve faded printing.
Missing, faded or dull colors.
Print the self-test on the printer hardware to see if it's a hardware or software problem.
You use genuine HP cartridges?

Hello, I have a desktop PC and a laptop (DELL Inspiron N-4050).
I have problem with my internet connection cable which is working fine on my PC, but does not not on my laptop giving an error "no access to the network.When I troubleshoot it says "your computer seems to be correctly configured but the device or resource (DNS SERVER) is not responding."
I said to many technicians of microsoft online response, but they could not solve my problem and said this is my DNS problem and advised me to contact my Internet service provider.

But on my desktop PC, it works perfectly fine. (I do not use wifi, if this information is also required) I have studied several threads with similar situations, and I have tried different methods to solve the problem to no avail. I did a system restore, but I'm having no luck. Also, I did not of the latest changes with my anti virus software and my LAN card drivers look to date.
When I remove my cable from the laptop and again connect my cable then it works but only after the PC sat for awhile.
1.I did flush DNS by typing "ipconfig/flushdns" in the command prompt.
2. my IP address, DNS, subnet mask etc are set to automatic.
3.I also added physical address taken from command line giving "ipconfig/all". for the properties of the network driver settings.
4.I ' installed the drivers to date of 2014 on my laptop.
5.I did a lot of searching the web, but they do not solve my problem.Please help me to solve it.
I appreciate your help.
