Windows Media Player 11 won't start.
I use Windows XP 32 bits in a corperate environment, each system is affected whether Dell or HP. I get the error "using Windows Media Player, log off from Windows, log back in and then start Windows Media Player.
Now the first thing I need to talk is uninstall WMP11 and reinstallation DOES NOT WORK DO. I uninstalled and reinstalled in every imaginable way, even using the 3rd party program to uninstall the registry files and clean up the remnants of the C drive.
After the relocation, the program works very well, BUT after 1 restart then amounts to giving this error. It seems no disernable it model.
I am now at a loss to know what to do and the policy of the company that I work for prohibits the installation of all except program media WMP11 (this includes the VLC multimedia player), any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Donnie

I uninstalled Windows Media Player 11 and it is reverted to the version 9, version 9, I can burn audio CDs without problem and they play.

Method 1:
You can try to reset the DRM licenses and check if the problem persists.
Important: Reset DRM tool removes all existing Windows Media DRM licenses and licenses of Zune DRM on your current installation of Windows 7. Reset DRM tool should only be used if all Zune DRM and Windows Media DRM content playback does not work. After the following process is finished, you must license the DRM from your Windows 7 computer.
Download DRM reset tool and save it to your desktop. To download this file, visit the following Web site:
http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkId=105000
a. right-click ResetDRM.exe and then click Run as administrator to reset the Windows Media DRM.
b. read the multimedia file ripped in Windows Media Player 12 for re - test Windows Media DRM.

Method 2:
You will need a codec to play the video file. A codec is a software to compress or decompress a digital media file, such as a song or a video. Windows Media Player and other programs use the codec to play and create digital media files.
You can check the link to see the guidelines on the issue belowhttp://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/codecs-frequently-asked-questions

Windows Media Player 7 won't play back of the BluRay disc
I just installed Windows 7 premium home, full retail version of 64-bit. I was surprised to find the media player does not support playback of BluRay. I read the previous post in this forum and see, as soon as may, that Microsoft was aware of problems with playback of BluRay on Win codec. 7
What is Microsoft to address this glaring problem. BluRay has been around for a long time and I'm sure that thousands of Windows 7 customers will be in the same boat as me. There is NO codec available via a search Google (64-bit) and I would be very reluctant to use one off of the internet in any way (Virus problems)
Hi Patrick,
As we know that Blu - Ray is a patented technology, so need the codec appropriate to buy and this is why we cannot include it in our operating system.
To play a Blu - ray disc, you must use a non-Microsoft program that supports Blu - ray playback and a device that can play Blu - ray discs.
