Windows Media Player error: Media Player is not properly installed.

I'm listening to an audio book from the library, I downloaded and I get the error message "Windows Media Player is not properly installed.  Reinstall the drive.

I use WP Pro, 64-bit, with WMP 11 (64-bit version I think).  Before my company passed to the 64-bit version of XP Pro, I could download and read books without problem.  It is only since the switch that I can not access my audio books.

We will try to go to the following URL, click the upgrade button and test.

See you soon

    Unlike Windows XP & Vista, Windows 7 does not include a default email Client. [What were thinking?]

    You will need to install a (e.g. MS Outlook;) Windows Live Mail; Thunderbird) , and then set it as a default for mail in CUSTOM (<>) article in Set Program Access and defaults of the computer , then restart your computer before any function send to or MailTo will become available.

    Hello

    Your MP3 player should have 2 settings - MSC that should allow the player to be used as a
    external drive and PSG that is the parameter to use to sync with WMP11. Remove the MP3
    and restart the computer. Change the MP3 in MTP mode - it power off and plug it in.

    I hope this helps.

  • "Windows Media Center is not installed correctly and must be reinstalled"

    I am running Windows XP Media Center Edition and Windows Media Center gives me an error that reads "Windows Media Center is not installed correctly and must be reinstalled." When I try to install Windows Media Player from the Microsoft website I gives me an error saying I need to download "Update cumulative 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition". Once I have download, I get a different error message indicating that I have to download '.NET Framework 1.1 and .NET Framework 1.2 SP1' before I can continue with the update for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. I download that and received a message that is not a valid Win32 application. I can not understand what is happening or how to fix it. I thought about uninstalling and reinstalling, but over the years, I lost track of the product key.  Does anyone know how can I fix? Thank you, in advance.
