• I have Windows XP Home Edition w/service pack 3. Windows Media Player will play CD but won't play DVD. What I can do. I am a beginner on the computer.

  I need help for fixing Windows Media Player in Windows XP Home Edition. Plays CD but will not play a dvd. I had my computer cleaned by a computer company of fix - it about a year ago, and they have installed service pack 3. I tried the free VLC Player and it would not work.

  FWIW... Win XP cannot natively recognize Commercial
  DVD video... it requires a DVD decoder.

  You can buy a DVD decoder at the following link:

  Hello Shelby57,

  You can try the following to see if it will get your Windows Media Player in Windows Vista.

  Make sure that Windows Media Player is set as default.
  Go to start. Click default programs. Set default programs. Select Windows Media Player, and then select "Set this program as default". And then click OK.

  First of all, we run System File Checker to see if you have a corrupt file system.

  Click Start
  Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
  Click on "Run as Administrator"
  At the command prompt, type: sfc/scannow

  This will check for any violation of the integrity and repair any damaged operating system files.

  Reboot your system.

  Rename/Delete the "Windows Media" folder located under %userprofile%\appdata\local\microsoft

  Now, go to Windows Media Player, do a right-click and select "run as Administrator".

  You should now be able to open Windows Media Player on Vista.

  I hope this helps.

  The bulk of this article applies to Windows 7, too:

  A description of the differences between 32-bit versions of Windows Vista and 64 bit versions of Windows Vista:
       http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/946765

  You have 2 two versions of Internet explore 8 (IE8), 64-bit IE8 and IE8 32 bit. IE8 64-bit is the default value.

  It is not a 64-bit version of Flash Player (at least not yet). While IE8 64 bit is your default browser, Flash contentshould open in IE8 32 bit. If you know any page contained Flash (or dependent on one or more ActiveX controls), open an instance of IE8 32 bit to access the page.

  IE64-bit is a "level 2" browser Flash and ActiveX controls are supported in browsers 'level 1' (e.g., IE 32 bits). Seelevels of browser support on this somewhat linked page: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263526.aspx#section2

  You should familiarize yourself with this FAQ: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/32-bit-and-64-bit-Windows-frequently-asked-questions

  The following is based on a related post from my colleague MVP Don Varnau aboutFlash & IE8 32 bit:

  The executable file for IE8 32 bit can be found here:
  
  C:\Program Files (x 86) \Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

  The executable for IE8 64 bit can be found here:
  
  C:\Program may Explorer\iexplore.exe

  Browse to the appropriate Program Files folder and create a shortcut to this version ofiexplore.exe
  - - -
  Then using IE8 32 bit:

  1. download and save to the desktop, the Flash Player uninstaller
  http://download.Macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/Current/uninstall_flash_player.exe

  2. download and save to the desktop, the Flash Player installer
  http://www.Macromedia.com/go/full_flashplayer_win_ie
  - - -
  Then...
  Right click on the uninstall program, and then select run as administrator of
  Reset.
  Right click on the installer, unzip it and select run as administrator
  Reset.
  - - -
  Then...
  Make sure IE8 32-bit is the default open.

  When you right-click on the icons of IE in the quick launch area, the Start Menu and the desktop, then click Properties, which is in the target field?

  (From a previous post by Peter Csaszar... version)

  Targets should be either:
  IE8 32 bit "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
  IE8 64-bit "C:\Program may Explorer\iexplore.exe"

  Change these objectives to be "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Internet ' (including the quotes) and IE8 32 bit should open by default

  To create a shortcut to IE8 64 bit for occasional use, navigate to the file iexplore.exe inC:\Program may Explorer\iexplore.exe. Right-click iexplore.exe , and then select send to. Desktop (create shortcut). Rename this shortcut so that you know this is the shortcut for IE8 64 bit.

  To make sure IE8 32-bit is the default, try this link http://www.Microsoft.com. When the browser opens lookhelp | About Internet Explorer. If there is no mention of 64-bit, 32-bit is the default value. If you have disabled the Menu bar, you will need to right click on the IE toolbar and put a controlmenu bar to have help available (or simply press ALT to move focus to themenu bar temporarily).

• How to reinstall windows media player in Vista?

  I had Media Player on my computer at the same time but was not using it so uninstalled, I need now, but when I try to download it, I get a message that I already have a version of media player on my computer. I looked in my control panel and all I can think of and can't find it. I need to know how to get rid of the message saying: I have a version of it, so I can download it again or how can I find it and put an icon on my desktop

  If you have Windows Vista, you have Windows Media Player INCLUDED. , It is part of the system. It cannot be uninstalled.
  This is why you get this message.
  You do NOT uninstalled. You could have 'removed' in the start menu, but the program is still in the system.

  Try the easiest way...
  Start button > in the search box, type windows media player > do you see Windows Media High Playerat left? If so, click it. Now that you have Windows Media Player.

  If for some reason, that the method above does not work...
  Start button > computer > right click on the C: drive > Open > highlightthe program files, make a right click, clickOpen > scroll to findWindows Media Pla..., right-click, click Open > scroll to find wmplayer.exe, click it. Now you should have Windows Media Player on screen.

  I like to take the video with my Treo phone. It has Windows Mobile 6 Professional and the videos play in media player on the phone.  When I try to open the file to support windows on my computer he named with a label of ".3g2" I can't my media player in vista to recognize the files. Help!

  Hello
   
  Windows Media Player does not support playback of all types of media file available currently. However, Windows Media Player provides support for the most common media file types.
   
  The type of file you are trying to play on media player is not supported by the media player. If Windows Media Player does not support the file format you are using, contact the distributor of the file for more information on the availability of a viewer for the file.
   
  However, installation of codecs can help you read the file successfully, check for possible solutions in this article and check the result: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316992
   
  There are a couple of free video converters available on the Web that you can use to convert the type of current file for the file type compatible multimedia player. Please note that Microsoft has not tested these programs and you use them at your own risk.
   
  I hope this helps.
