problem uninstalling PlayItAll media player.

I am running XP pro SP3, on computer laptop lenovo.  Drive multimedia PlayItAll appeared on my desk one day.  Absolutely DAFT (don't ask why).  Uninstalling apparently caused most of the files to be tagged with the .lnk extension and now my computer does not recognize any file with a .exe extension. ? ! ?

I rebooted in safe mode and restored and it worked, but "playitall mp" is back as my default player and will not change what it is less.  Uninstalled again with extra care and... Same result.  But now, some of my restore points disappeared. One of the two worked on the left, but guess who's back?   Whence "playitall mp"?  And how can I get rid of it safely?

PS: I have not all google apps.  I mention that, due to similar problems, some had some Google stuff.  I noticed that most of them were PlayItAll mp also.  Is there a link?

  • Problem with Windows Media Player: "Server execution failed" and "files needed to display video are not installed or do not work properly.

    I have a problem with Windows Media Player on laptop Lenovo G780. My laptop is under warranty (bought a month ago), but technical support Lenovo told me that the Windows Media Player program is not covered by the warranty.

    And this is a problem:

    When I click on Windows Media Player - to about 0.1 sec I see it opens and closes the window and nothing happens.

    When I select a mp3 or wmv file and right-click with the option open with Windows Media Player - I get a message: "Server execution failed" - I checked that all services with 'Media' in the name are running.

    When I select a mp3 or wmv file and right-click with the open option with Windows Media Center - Windows Media Center opens with the message: "the files needed to display video are not installed or do not work properly.

    When I select a file mp3 or wmv and right-click with option open with Windows Movie Maker life - see the video

    I tried to turn / WMP and WMC - did not help
    Tried to run as administrator - did not help
    I don't see something suspicious under events

    What can I do else?

    Thank you

    I had the same problem and then by chance, I tried a video on YouTube and it worked for me. Here's how I went on this issue and solved my problem:

    1. go to the computer, then OS (C).
    2. you will need to open Program Files (x 86) and Program Files.
    3. go to Windows Media Player in Program Files (x 86) and open the folder.  Then, remove the wmplayer file.  You may need to work around the error TrustedInstaller.  I'll tell you that, in a moment.
    4. in Program Files, go to the same folder for Windows Media Player and select the same file again. Wmplayer.  Copy the file in another window open.  Copy ensures that if the question comes up again you can at least try to fix it again.
    This should be the end of your problem.  If you need to circumvent the TrustedInstaller question is how:
    1. right click on wmplayer and select Properties > Security > advanced > owner > Edit > other users and groups.
    2. Enter your username and then click on check names.  Click OK.
    3. close the dialog boxes as he has requested.
    4. open again the properties and click Security.  Select your username from the list and click on edit.  From there, select full control.
    This should give you full control over the removal of the original file for WMP and easily allow you to copy the other files (x 86) programs.
    Please let me know how it goes for your problem.

  • Problem with Windows Media Player Audio sync DivX playback in full screen

    Hello

    I have found lately that when playing videos on Windows Media Player divx mode full screen audio is out of sync.  If the video is played in window mode, there is no problem.  I had no such problem in the past, but now for about 1 month or so, I have this problem.

    I have fitted iq508a to vista 64-bit, with the latest drivers delivered HP installed (using the HP update utility)-does anyone else have this same problem too?

    I can't believe! I solved the problem with this problem of video audio sync during playback in full screen!

    While watching the Pineapple Express, I thought WTF I'll take another closer look at this, and while they were smashimg their cell phones so that they could not be found by triangulation, (don't ask - u just I have to watch - stoner movie )...

    in any case, I looked under tools options in WMP.  I unchecked the option on the performance tab "use video smoothing"-the video as reloaded and bingo! everything in harmony!

    BTW, I checked my another PC running Vista 32 bit and the option ' use video smoothing ' also exists and it is checked if this seems to be a problem with WMP works on Vista 64 bit or running desktop Touchsmart of WMP... In case I am much happier now...

    Hi grandmomof6,

    1. have you tried to burn a DVD in Windows media (WMP) Player recently, and then the problem started?

    a. open Windows Explorer and right click the CD\DVD drive

    b. click on open and check if you have an option that some files are waiting to burn or write.

    c. If so right click on this option and select Remove.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • Can I uninstall Windows Media Player 12 and reinstall in Windows 7 Professional

    I found a fix you guys thank you earlier, but the corrupted files are still there as someone amended to follow something. Files that has not changed with the fix it guy are applications wmpshare 100 KB; wmpconfig 100KB; Wmplayer 161KO. There is no shortcut, but I go to the menu and click on it and takes me to the location of the files that is now different instead of the type pathname %.  Installers has complete control of the confidence of all this I can not change the permissions either. Cannot even remove these files and the interesting things are WMP is not listed in the menu of programs to alter repair uninstall so it cannot be uninstalled anyway. I disable it in functionality, but that it disabled just when I enabled it today, it was the same until the fix. And now I don't remember which arises or what I was doing, but he said a new version of WMP is installed on your computer, you cannot use an old facility to repair your... I forgot, but I took a snip of it:

    This is what arises, I guess that when I clicked on the application of wmpconfig so I'm stuck in this media Bermuda triangle which is sync all my readers as devices to program flash cannot go down of their. And my HotSpot Android 4 g phone that I use as access point for internet. WMP which is synchronized to the library. All my flash drives now phone are synchronized in that library and it cannot play music. It grabs all my videos, photos and don't have the music. It's crazy.

    So now I answer to my own question (s) it is impossible to uninstall

    When I said there is a newer version already installed but I can't. Also up-to-date Flash Player service is stopped and does not let me start I guess because WMP is jacked or pirated, ha.  What can I do? I don't want to do a RESTORE of the SYSTEM cuz it's back in July 6, 2014.  Well I hope someone knows how to handle this cuz it affects a lot of other little things that are not so little for me.
