• All of my files have been converted to open it with Windows Media Player. How can I change this back to normal?

  Hello.

  I don't know what I clicked at all initially, but now, most of my programs have been converted to open it with Windows Media Player, so that they cannot work.

  Even when I click on the system restore (to undo changes I've done previously), Windows Media Player opens and there will be a window that says that you can not read this .exe file.

  I'm stuck and I don't know how else to solve this problem. Help, please!

  Hello

  • What version of Windows are you using?

  1. it is possible that you are missing the codec to play the file or it is clashing with other codec files.

  2. the link provided below lists supported by Windows Media Player file format.
  It does not list the AVCHD or. MTS files supported file format directly:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992

  3. yet we cannot be sure at this point that the issue is due to interference with some files.

  Method 1:
  Alternatively, you can perform a restore of the system to a previous point, when the issue was not present. The System Restore tool uses points of restore to return the system files and settings to an earlier point in time. You can use it to restore the operating system to a point in time where you have not experienced the problem.

  Note: When you use System restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  To do this, there must be a restore point from the system in which the connection was successful.

  Please refer to the below of the help links on performing a system restore.
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-is-system-restore
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions

  Method 2:
  You can determine which codec was used with a specific file; read the file in the player, if possible. When the file is playing, right-click the file in the library, and then click Properties. On thefile tab, look at the Audio codec and Video codec sections.

  Then you can uninstall any installed codec and install that you need to do the job file.

  If you have several codec for the single file to work they can clash and cause problems.

• I couldn't find 'Open URL' on Windows Media Player.

  Microsoft Community, good day,

  I couldn't find 'Open URL' on Windows Media Player, if I can get the direction where it is.
   
  In anticipation of your support.
  Respectfully,.
  Filip CIKLEVSKI

  On mine, "Open URL" is in the file menu.

  If you don't see the file menu, then:

  and tick "Show menu bar". Then you should see the menu of old style etc.

  Click on and the options are , etc.

  You can also if you don't want older menus showing:

  1 open WMP, press the then the key and the menu should appear.

  or

  2 simply type together (i.e. Control AND u touches at the same time)

• Why can't I play the videos to M4V format bought in iTunes in windows media player

  Original title: M4V format

  Why can't I play the videos to M4V format bought in iTunes in windows media player. Thank you

  If the video does not the restrictions of DRM (Digital Rights Management), so you can see just by changing the .mp4 extension allows it to be played in Windows Media Player, but if Apple added restrictions to the file DRM then you will be limited to such players as apple deems suitable to be used, probably iTunes or Quicktime.

• I can't open .eml in windows live mail. prohibited file type?

  I get mail from a conact and I can't open attachments. When I try, I get a message that it's a "forbidden .eml file Type" and may not open. I have Windows 7 amd and the 64 bit OS. What is the solution please?

  There is an option in the Security of the security options of reading worksheet tab do not allow the opening or the recording attached that may contain a virus. This option can cause the symptoms you see.

  If you had posted in the forum dedicated to Windows Live Mail as Brian suggested that you do, you would have been asked to give your version of the software. How do I access the security options varies from one version to another. In WLMail to find one that you are using, a press on ALT - H. If it doesn't show you the version and the build number, press on escape to two times, and then Alt - F B.

• How can I open the downloads window only? Or how can I close my browser and open the winodw downloads without an active download?

  I have about a year of downloads to sift through and organize. It means I have many open files that I move the files to the appropriate locations. The last thing I need is to have unnecessarily the browser open between all this mess.

  So... can I close my window of Firefox browser without the automatic reclosing also downloads window? Or better yet, is it possible to just open the downloads window and not the browser window?

  Again, I want to ONLY THE DOWNLOADS WINDOW open, not the browser window. I see that others have asked similar questions, but no one has ever proposed a solution.

  Avoid using the file > exit or the red X button. On the contrary: press Ctrl + j to display the downloads window, and then use Ctrl + w to close the last remaining tabs. The downloads window should remain open. A little luck?

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance/themes).

  the button in the tab tool bar will not work. I can't open many tabs. It was suggested to get rid of the toolbar. I don't have that. How can I fix it
  ?

  Hello

  You can try to check if this in Safe Mode. Safe mode disables the installed Extensionsand themes (appearance) in (Alt + T) Tools > Add-ons. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - manual setting is Tools > Options > Advanced > general > use hardware acceleration when available. All these settings/options/additional custom modules can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed to normal mode of Firefox to check if an extension, theme, option or a hardware acceleration is causing issues. Deactivation/activation of hardware acceleration and some types of modules in normal mode may require a restart of Firefox.

  Uninstalling the modules

  Uninstalling toolbars

  Troubleshooting Extensions and themes

  An even easier way would be to Reset Firefox by help (Alt + H) > troubleshooting information and start again if all goes well and avoid the problematic add-ons.
