  Original title: WMC no longer works after update of August 10

  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 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.

  Hi herbyderbydo,

  1A what difficulties have you tried Microsoft?

  2. does come with any specific channel?

  This problem occurs if the process of updating Windows Media Center (Mcupdate.exe) cannot access the Windows Media Center data store.

  You'll need to rebuild the Windows media center data store and check if it works.

  Run the tool fixit here automatically to rebuild the data store.

  You can also try manually as follows:

  1.	Exit any running instance of Windows Media Center.
  2.	Delete the file mediaCenterDataStore.db. By default, this file is located in the following location: %SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome\mediaCenterDataStore.DB To remove the file, follow these steps: one. Click Startand then click run b. In the Open box, type run , and then click OK If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click continue c. In the Open box, type %systemdrive%\programdata\microsoft\ehome , and then click OK . d. In the details pane, right-click right mediacenterdatastore.db and then click Remove . e. Click Yes to confirm that you want to move the Mediacenterdatastore.db file to the trash.
  3.	Start Windows Media Center. If the previous step fails, check the event viewer to determine the cause of the problem and post here What are the information in event logs? (Event Viewer) http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-information-appears-in-event-logs-Event-Viewer Let us plug in which is also used by the channel causing the media center stopped by right clicking on the channel.
