Hello
If I understand correctly that you are unable to read a file through Windows Media Player, because it is an error message saying that the file is not supported. However, you could read the same file before, is this correct?
Please post information for a better understanding of the issue.
1. What is the format of the file you are trying to read or file extension?
2. are you referring to a file played on a CD / DVD or stored on the computer?
3. What is the exact error code / message appears when you try to play the file?
You can deal with this issue
a. file corruption
b. incorrect Windows audio Codec
c. the file (if it is available in the Windows media player library) is moved or deleted.
To begin to solve the problem by checking the Windows audio codec and the basic settings.
Method 1
Step 1
Windows Media Player invalid file Error Message Format
Step 2
Error message when you type the name of a file to play with Windows Media Player: "Cannot open file."
Also try to run this program fix.

AT THE OPENING OF THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF FILES WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER OPENS INDICATING NOT TO SUPPORT THE TYPE OF FILE OR CODEC. WHY? Help, please!
If you try new types of files that WMP is not pregnant then it will warn you that they only peuvent malfunction.
I got when I started to use video files to .ts format - he warned me, and then I told him to go ahead & try anyway, so he did and they worked.
If say you your WMP to try to use the format, then you can include the results in your response to the request of zig - zag for more info - make sure to specify what types of files they are. Note the messages you get from WMP because it will give more information that just what file extension are files - video files can be, for example, the extensions of files .ts taking video & audio formats of all kinds such as mpeg2 or mpeg4 & mp3 or ac3.

Hello

Hi bbdunford,
Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file.
You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:
(a) the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.
(b) the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.
Windows media player will play only the files and videos only if it supports this type of file.
Method 1
Check if the video file format is supported by Windows media player using the link below.
Information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992
If the files are not supported by Windows media player, then you will need to use a few players from third party that supports this file format.
Method 2
See the link below for more information on the codec.

My iPod is connected to the computer and it works fine with iTunes. But I can't get the music in Windows Media Player to iPod. When I try to sync in Windows Media Player, it does not recognize the iPod, and I can drag files from WMP to iTunes or the iPod.
You cannot synchronize an Apple product in itself using WMP, unless you buy a 3rd party. You must use iTunes.
See you soon,.Jerry -
I encountered a very strange error with InDesign CC after you save a file created in CS4. I would like to attach the file but I don't know how to do this, if I can. The file is 44 KB and doesn't seem like it should be (file I saved was a great book cover). Now, as the original CS4 file has been replaced using InDesign CC, the file is corrupted and I get the error message shown below. The file is not open in another application. If somebody has got this before?
Replace the .idml extension and see if it opens...
