Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk. Open the registry editor by clicking on start, type regedit.exe in the search box and press on enter, you may be prompted to continue.

It should be an element named LastLocation_26, right-click on it and select Rename, and rename it to old LastLocation_26. Leave the open registry editor and open Media Player, then move it to your favorite place and close Media Player. In the registry editor, press F5 on your keyboard and check if LastLocation_26 has been recreated. If this is not the case, there is probably a permissions problem.
