How to convert Windows Documents that have been set by mistake in Windows Media Center to a readable Document?

To transfer files from an old computer, some of my WORK Documents have been converted in some way to Windows Media Center documents.

How can I re - convert Documents or files in a Non-musical format that can be read?  Thanks much for any help.

Hi Harold,

When you run an .exe file on a Windows 7 based computer, the file can start another program. In addition, the icon of the file .exe may not appear as expected. You can also receive additional errors in the .exe file or the program that starts. I suggest you to refer to the help article and check if it helps.

    Media Center

    While not a central theme of your comments, I have received about 50 emails about Media Center. I would like to reassure customers that Media Center will certainly be part of Windows 8. No doubt about it. Knowing how strong the support of Media Center is between the testers of the preliminary version, we still have to do to ensure quality and compatibility with supplements is what you expect still in pre-release (as for any version of Windows, compatibility is an important effort, and when we work on the underlying video engine (for example, make sure that the features that push these areas receive adequate coverage).

  • How to uninstall windows media center?

    How to uninstall windows media center? It keeps opening up, and I can't open all the files, pls help...

    See - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/15530/uninstall-disable-or-remove-windows-7-media-center/ - perhaps?

    But if she "continues to open and you cannot open all files" maybe something is seriously wrong somewhere else. If he goes much evil that is, no file opens, then when it started to happen? It has been recently? you got whatever it is installed again just before the problem occurred? If then possibly consider to delete that or try a "restore point" at one point, just before the error started.

  • How to install Windows Media Center & decoder: Please help!

    I have a HP desktop computer. There not yet 2 years old, I have Windows Media Center (WMC) and I could watch TV very good about it until I'm the cable box. I simply plugged the cable into the Tower, no problem. Now that I have the decoder, I'm confused as to what's missing to make it work! It is said that the IR hardware & IR control cables are missing. What does that mean? Also, how far I will use? Do I have to use a universal? Oh, and it shows the channels that are supposed to be here (for example: it comes through that channel 53 is supposed to be MTV, but there is no video or sound).

    Thank you!!!

    -Lisa

    Set your tuner, PC TV channel 3 or 4 according to the cable box output channel.  The decoder is initially connect to the wall and the video output is connected to the PC.  Use the remote control for the set-top box to change channels.  If the PC is to drive the sound then you will also need to connect audio cables (red and white) from the cable box to the audio inputs of the TV tuner card.

  • I'm trying to connect my xbox live to my files. How to make Windows Media Center?

    I am trying to connect my files from my account to xbox live.  I was trying to figure out how, and he said that I needed Windows Media Center.  It doesn't even look like my Windows XP offers.  I can't find anyway.  Can I add my system?  Is that going to even to allow me to access my files?  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hope this helps ;) I know that it is a complicated process and I understand the House will network computers running the Media Center. If you click on the following link, you should be able to determine if you have any problems of compatibility http://support.xbox.com/en-us/pages/xbox-360/troubleshoot/media-center-faq.aspx

    I strongly recommend to contact Xbox customer service because they have a specialized department set up just to manage customers to help with the implementation and use of the Media Center/Media Extender services available.

    However, here is an overview of some of the basics to have this work:

    Some with Media Center PC/Windows versions are:

    • Windows 7 Home Premium or full, professional edition
    • Windows Vista Ultimate or Home Premium
    • Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005

    Once the media center is installed on the pc, you must configure the xbox as a Media Extender and authorizes.

    Finally, you need to add a network share connection between your console and your pc. This process can be a little intimidating, once again, I recommend that you contact customer service with the help of an expert in the Media Center .

  • How to remove windows media center in the virus

    When I'm almost about to remove Center windows media, when I click on turn windows features, windows media center automatically pop. also, when I try to open any other program, Windows media center pop again. How can I remove this without it popping up when I click on something.

    Back up important data first, if you can. Then backup the registry. These two precautions.

    Then, if this has occurred there is little time, you can use System Restore to a point just before the association of the WMC has occurred.

    If this is not the case, see http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html and use file associations that are false. You probably need the patches .exe and .com (depending on what actually open WMC. For example, if all programs open WMC)

  • How can I get files that have been saved without first install Quicktime ALternative 1.81 to play in the first elements 11 Streamclip AVI?

    I had tapes of 'home movie' Hi-8 transferred to mp4 files. To extract the many snippets of these long lines, I used MPEG Streamclip 1.2. The default record for these short sequences was mp4. Either they did not work in Adobe Premiere elements 11 or I thought they wouldn't - I remember now - so I recorded each clip as AVI. These AVI files won't play at all in the elements of Prime Minister. I googled for advice and found that I needed to convert Quicktime alternative 1.81. I'm afraid that this should be done before I saved the clips, but I didn't know that. However, I later uninstalled Quicktime 7 installed Quicktime 1.81 and tried to convert the files first to MP4, AVI clips (did not at all in PE11), then format MOV (played audio only). AVI files play fine in Windows Media Player and VLC.  All I have are the original files saved as AVI in Streamclip. Is it possible to get these play and be editable in first 11 elements? I have attached a capture jpeg from a reading of gspot for one of these files. Thank you!
