• Windows Media Center starts on its own...

  I am running Vista 64 bit. and from these time, for some reason my media center to windows just starts up on its own with attention now. I checked the settings in the media center and its not programmed to automatically start from what I've seen. It starts when I open other programs, and when I close them. not all the time and not in any decernable model. What should I do?

  Hello James_CC,

  You can try and allows for stop in the MSConfig Startup tab:

  First, go to control panel, then AutoPlay. Then check the selections of videos, films, etc. and select not "Act".
  Try again and see if Windows Media Center always plays at startup.

  Then, you can stop Windows Media Center to start services.
  Type msconfig (System Configuration) and go to the Startup tab uncheck the Scriptures which has the ehome as path to the command, such as ehTray.exe. This will prevent MCE related services to start upward.

  I would also check the default associations:
  Open the control panel (all items view) and click the default programs.

  Click on the game to link your default programs.
  In the left column, select the program (highlighted) a list that you want to change the associations is default for file.
  To set all Assciations by default in the Program-
  NOTE: This will allow to associate the selected program by default used by Windows 7 to open all types of files and protocols it can open.
  Click set this program as default.
  Click Save to apply.
  Click OK.

  Please answer and give us an update to see whether or not these measures have helped.

  Windows Media Center has stopped working after installation of my Windows 7 Professional pc all 11 updates gave me on August 11, 2010. I used system restore to the day before the updates, and install them individually. The first 9 no trouble with WMC. But the IE8 KB982664 for Windows 7 compatibility view list caused my action center to report that I needed to check the undeclared solutions to problems. WMC would still start. But after installing KB983590 .NET framework 3.5.1 for Windows 7 x 86, WMC has stopped working.

  After you uninstall update 2 above WMC would still not start.

  After using the system again restore forward updates, I installed the other 9 updated with, so far, no problem with WMC.

• Click recorded TV, it says that "Windows Media Center has stopped working, seeking resolutions... »

  I'm having a problem with Windows Media Center. It starts no problem, but when I click on recorded TV, it says that "Windows Media Center has stopped working, seeking resolutions... "If I click on TV guide there is no problem. I tried a restore, but for some reason any restore function has been disabled.

  (copy - paste from another thread - user has same question):

  
  You has not, coincidentally, happens to record last Friday (I think it is?) episode of human target (what happened to be replaced by a House reruns), did you?
  Reason I ask: it has been a little traffic on to thegreenbutton on the subject these days - and everyone who reported also arrived to try to save human target.  Somehow, the file finished with metadata is corrupted, what makes MC crash when you enter recorded TV (at best, it crashes when you select the program from the list.)
  FIX: Open Explorer and go to C:\users\Public\Recorded TV.  Find and remove "human Target__"(exemple: «La Target_WDIVDT_2010_10_01».) ".
  Start Media Center, and then try again.  Fixed?

  Hello

  Is there a way to stop the mouse pointer to show more of Windows Media Center, other than moving it?

  I note that adobe flash player can do it in a web page, then why not an 'entire' application such as Windows Media Center?

  Thank you

  Hi hiphoppoprock,

  In Windows Mode, the pointer in Windows Media center is designed to be displayed.

  In order to have the pointer automatically disappear you need to change the Mode full screen.
