How can I change the music button on my keyboard to launch Windows Media Player to launch WinAmp?

Thank you

Drew

As Mike Hall suggested, first look for the keyboard utility and seek to change the keyboard assignment there.

If this option is not available, you can try to change the default program to open files of music. I do not think that "hotkey" keyboard music trying to specifically open Windows Media Play, rather it opens the program assigned as the default value for the music.

So you'll need to get to the default programs control panel applet. To get there:

  1. Click Start , then Control Panel (in midway up on the right side)
  2. In the Control Panel window, click programs (not options, just the word more big programs). (If you have your set control panel to displayall items in the Panel control, then the applet default programs will be already visible and available directly)
  3. The second group of options should be the default programs. The two options here that should be of interest to you are:
    Make a file always open in a specific program type and (especially) set your default programs.

You should find everything you need there.

  • How can I fix see "obsolete driver is no longer supported by Windows Media Player ' on my Win XP Tablet?

    I have a 3 own Motion LE1600 Windows XP svc pk tablet. I run Windows Media Player v 11.0.5721.5280. I don't have any IDEA of pilots. The songs seem to play very well.

    So, what happened WITH THAT? How can I solve this problem?

    You download the .zip file on your hard disk and unzip it on your hard drive?  "If so, you should work with Explorer and not Internet Explorer, then"open in a new tab"should not be an option.  What happens if your right click on "setup.exe" and select "open"?

    You are an administrator on your machine?  The drivers require that you be logged as an administrator in order to install the drivers.  The quick test is to right click on the button 'start '.  If "Open all users" is one of the options that opens, then you are an administrator.

    Other .exe files open or is it just this one?  If you have a problem with all .exe files, you may have a problem of association of files with ".exe" files

  • How can I play files aac audio from a sd card on windows media player

    I recorded my digital radio to a SD card and used to be able to play on Windows Media.  I've been able to play, but now can't play.  The files are .aac.  A window appears with the following: -.

    "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or a required codec may not be installed on your computer. »

    That is right. Is it installed correctly it just opens a WMP plug in when you open a file.

    You must do one of the following:
    -Open an individual file in WMP file > open and then go to your SD card and select the file
    -go to Windows Explorer (n my computer right click and select open) and your SD card must shownup as a memory storage device. Browse it and double click on one of the files, which should then open WMP.

  • How can I change the network to a WiFi connection profile in Windows 8?

    When I connect to a wireless connection, it automatically assigns me for the Public Profile. But, I know to trust the network and want to select it as private, so that I can use the share.

    In previous versions of Windows, it was easy to change the WiFi profile. For example, in Windows 7, I would go to the network share and click on the name of the profile, and it would allow me to change it. Now, in Windows 8, the profile name is static text and is no longer provides a link that allows me to edit the profile.

    I tried to remove the profile and add it back, using the context menu on the WiFi network and "forget this network". But he never asks on the profile or sharing when I add the network.

    Try this:

    -Show the charms

    -Select settings

    -Select the network icon

    -Right click (using a mouse), or press and hold (with your finger) on the name of the network connection, that you care

    -A menu will appear to allow you to control the sharing, so to go from a private and public profile.

  • How can I change the color in a search for visited sites window? I'm partially color blind and the default colors are very difficult to tell one from the other.

    When I look at a page of search engine results, I would like the colors of the results visited a much more different color than they are today. As v.s. blue black or blue v.s. yellow.

    You are welcome

    Disable the website of colors in the preferences (options) can have all kinds of side effects because it also disables background images and as such can cause buttons or links that consist exclusively of a background image to get invisible.

    The NoSquint extension is much better in dealing with these issues.
