My windows media player 7 is running in compatibility windows 95 instead of 7

Original title: Media Player compatibility

My windows 7 media player is running in compatibility windows 95 instead of 7. is it right for player 12.0?

If his job very well then ok because compatibility is just to give the application to an environment in which it can work, but it is not necessary to activate the compatibility and select any version of Windows, because the reader already supports most of the formats.

Otherwise, WMP seems to work very well. All of the suggestions. My next step, then a lot of time, is to format and reinstall windows. I am running Vista at the moment. I have WMP version 11.

  • Windows Media Player permission to run under Vista 64-bit

    How to change the setting for a specific program so that it will run under Vista 64-bit without asking permission every time as the permission?  For some reason any of all the pre-installed software that came with my computer, only Windows Media Player asks me permission every time I try to run it from the desktop icon.

    Remove icons from desktop and quicklaunch and created new file programs.  Problem solved.

  • Windows media player is not running

    daughter got on media player and now it is as it has opened far too much and it not turns not right... is there a way to restore it to how it was or clean

    Your daughter may be innocent here... (well let's give him the benefit of the doubt!)

    There are some Windows updates in recent days while I should try a restore of the system first, go back to a restore point created before the problem started.

    If you need any indication on it let know us... and if she doesn't do the trick, we will try something else.

    You can turn off the automatic updates temporarily from the Panel, otherwise the problem may restore before you have had the opportunity to verify its success (or not), but don't forget to turn it back on them at some point.

    Let us know how it goes. R

  • Media Player is still running when Microsoft Media Center is open

    When I used to open the Media Center to view images, WMP never turned on unless I played music. Now he runs and use about 50% CPU just to look at a few pictures.  I stopped using Process Explorer - process to kill, but he did it again.

    I have not found a way to disable Media Center or WMP.  I'm only interested in turning off to avoid the 50% CPU usage and would like to know how to to this topic.  I have Vista SP2 and WMP 11.

    Thanks for your help,

    =====================================
    A DVD decoder is not included with Windows XP...
    so, we need to be acquired and installed from a third
    the party source. If your system has one when it was new...
    It would have been included in your OEM software
    package... maybe you always for her installation disk.

    The site has a few suggestions:

  • I am trying to download Media Player 9 and will have compatibility issues

    I have Windows Vista Home Premium i can't download Media Player 9 because of compatibility issues, I am tying to download movies from my local library and continue to receive error messages.

    You cannot download Windows Media 9 on Vista because it already has Windows Media Player 10. Can't do.

    What problems are you having with the downloaded movies? What are the EXACT error messages (Word for Word)?  Which version of Vista you are using.
