How can I uninstall WMP? The installed version will not start.

I am running Vista Build 6002. on a portable computer E525 eMachines.

Hello

Windows Media Player is part of the vista operating system

You cannot uninstall/reinstall

Try these steps;

Run the sfc/scannow command.

Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow

    The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions

If SFC detects the main problems it can't fix you may need to borrow a Microsoft dvd vista not an acer, HP etc. recovery disk and do a repair installation
