The wmplayer.exe file has a version number of 11.0.6002.18005 where__11.0.6002.18311 was expected.

My OS is Vista Ultimate SP2.  When I try to open WMP, I get the following error message:

"The wmplayer.exe file has a version number of 11.0.6002.18005 where.
11.0.6002.18311 was expected.

"Windows Media Player is not installed correctly and must be reinstalled.

"Do you want to install the player on the Microsoft Web site?"

When I click on Yes to the question, the web page, that I have has no option to download WMP for Vista.

How can I solve this problem?  To help guests or you can provide answers.

Here are simple instructions from Microsoft Support:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/961047

On Windows Vista:

  1. Reboot your system.
  2. Open cmd.exe as an administrator by selecting Start Programs/Accessories.
  3. Right-click on command prompt and choose Run as administrator.
  4. Type in
    Unregmp2.exe /UpdateWMPVersion
  5. Press ENTER.

If this does not help, please report back. I have another method that involves editing the registry.

    Hi AnnieT2053,

    Although the error message prompts you to reinstall the Windows Media Player, reinstalling does not necessarily fix the problem. Generally, the error message appears again when you try to launch Windows Media player after reinstallation.

    Method 1: To resolve the problem, perform the following steps:

    a. go to Start , then click run.

    b. type following command in the Open box and then press enter:

    c:\windows\inf\unregmp2.exe /UpdateWMP

    The steps above resolve the confusion that your computer has been with the version numbers of Windows Media Player, and then corrects the error.

    Method 2: Try the SFC (System File Checker) scan on the computer.

    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    a. click Startand type cmd in the box start the search.

    b. right click on cmd in the list programs, and then click run as administrator.

    c. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue

    d. at the command prompts, the following line and press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

    Hello

    Hello

    I have 64 Ultimate, I had a problem with the version number of WMPLOC. DLL, see the attachment. I run Kaspersky AV completely up to date.
    There is a lot of info on the net and none have worked in this newsgroup on how to fix this error however.

    I tried to change the version of the file with resource hacker and I tried all the dos commands to save the version of the file, but it worked only partially.

    I to WMP do not have access to the list of start/programs, don't y at - it programs in one and the list of features "Turn Windows features on or off", my desktop shortcut has been for version 32 bit and who made the error, as did double click an MP3 file.

    I have 32 and 64 bit versions of WMP on my PC, I created a shortcut on the desktop for the 64 bit version and it works however I can't associate MP3s with the 64-bit version, dialogue 'Open with' reverts to the 32-bit version (and I get the error) even if I chose the wmplayer.exe in 64-bit file , I tried to rename the folder WMP 32 bit for windows does not find the exe file in this folder and it uses just Quicktime for the association.

    Y at - it a fix for this problem of association?

    Thank you

    I guess you need go to the 64-bit version of Internet Explorer as well for this. There should be a shortcut to this version in the Menu start - all programs. Tim Baets

    What else do I do?

    After typing in the command and pressing on enter, it is simply a new line and nothing happens. The fix for me on the link does not work for my Windows 7 and fix it did not work me.
