Alternatively, you can fix the problem by disabling the process using the media player:
1. press Ctrl + Shift + Esc, this will bring up the Task Manager, right-click Windows media player in the Applications tab and select go to process. This will bring you to the processes tab with the process highlighted for you. Right-click on the process and select tree to complete the process . This will close the Windows Media Player.

2. open another music file by double clicking it. Close Windows Media Player by clicking on the close (X) button for the player.

This will fix the problem.

    Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

    I suggest you try these methods and check the status of the issue.

    Method 1:

    Keep the computer in a clean boot and check the status of the issue. If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem. Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service. After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.

  • When you start Windows Media Player I get error: "Server execution failed".

    Hello

    When I try to start Windows Media Player by double-clicking an audio or video file, I get the error "Server execution failed" for this file. Can someone tell me what this means and what I can do about it?

    Thank you

    Christi

    Hi Christi,

    You may receive this error if you try to open a file media shortly after the closing of Windows Media Player (WMP).  When you close WMP, the user interface is closed immediately, but WMP continues to be in a State of "shutting down" for a few seconds, and the process is still in activity during this period.

    To avoid this problem it should be enough to wait a few seconds before Windows Media Player opens, 2 seconds at least.

    Relevant convenience stores are available to-control panel, troubleshooting services, see everything [on the left], settings of WMP.  If you are online when you open it then it will be updated to the latest version of the troubleshooter before his execution [or you can go directly to the online http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Open-the-Windows-Media-Player-Settings-troubleshooterversion].

    - - - - - - -

    Unless you run a K, N or KN Windows version [see Panel, System], then there is no download WMP.

    Regular updates of Windows include all updates for WMP [for example, the included updated Dec KB2847077 and that was a WMP update].  Ce KB is supposed to be a specific patch for WMP freezing, but some other recent messages indicate it fixed other issues while at least another post said that he created problems [problem WMP] and had to be uninstalled.

    If you get completely fed up trying to fix WMP, then you can try these two steps [they are the closest thing possible to uninstall then reinstall WMP & will actually provide a new installation of WMP]

    14.1 discharge WMP - Panel, programs and features, Windows features turn on [left] on or off, multimedia functions, clear box Windows Media Player, Yes, OK, restart the PC.

    14.2 recharge WMP - control panel, programs and features, [left] turn features on or off, Windows multimedia functions, set the Player Windows Media box, Yes, OK, restart the PC.

  • Full screen is black when you use windows media player series Equium

    Hello.

    When I watch TV on the windows media player so I have the problem. If I go to full screen, it's all black screen but I can hear sounds.
    Watch DVD is OK.

    I have my laptop for 4 months, but everything was ok.
    This problem started 2 days ago maybe earlier. I think I did something but I don't know what and I can't fix it.

    I did restore the BONE, but it did not help.

    Could you help me please?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I know this problem, it s just a bug with media player and the graphics drivers (mainly the media player causes the error it s). Please, if you want to watch something on TV and then playback must be STOPPED BEFORE you from the screen. Once you have changed the screen, enable playback and it should work.

    Otherwise, go on www.videolan.org website, download the latest version of VLC Player and do it with him, it should work for sure. I never start playback of a movie or something when the screen not changed front on television that the screen alone.
