  • I get a message "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem" when I browse me videos.

    When I browse my library of videos in Windows Media Player 11 on Windows XP SP3, I got a message "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem and needs to close." The message does not appear immediately, but after about 5 seconds browsing my library of videos. The details of the error are:
    AppName: wmplayer.exe AppVer: ModName 11.0.5721.5145: deinterlace.ax
    ModVer: 1.0.1.0 Offset: 00001cba

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Someone just tell me how to solve the problem. Apparently, some corrupt videos caused Windows Media Player to plant as soon as thumbnails of the videos have been read. I quickly changed to a non-thumbnail view, so the error would not appear (it appears only when you try to load the photos), then deleted corrupted videos. Thanks for the help, if.

    Step 1: Here is the list of the formats supported by Windows Media player file:

    Information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player:

    I tried several times to remove the selection to burn and create a new a new but it keep "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem when burning the file to delivery" appears what should I do?   What problem is it?

    Hello

    1. what file format you are trying to burn?

    2. have you made changes on the computer recently?

    3. What is the security software installed on the computer?

    If it's something you downloaded, it may be copy protected by DRM, in which case you may not burn it to a CD or DVD.

    Here are a few things to try:

    1. make sure that the disc is clean.

    2. try a different brand of blank discs.

    3. stop all other programs that are running.

    4. make sure that the hard drive does not use disk compression.

    I suggest that you follow these steps and check if they help to solve the problem.

    Method 1:

    Try to use the Troubleshoot utility to see if that solves the problem.

    a. open the troubleshooting Windows Media Player settings Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel.

    (b) in the search box, type "convenience store" and then click Troubleshooting.

    c. click on show all and then click the Windows Media Player settings.

    Method 2:

    Select a recording speed (write) more slow for the CD burner.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/change-settings-for-burning-a-CD-or-DVD-in-Windows-Media-Player

    Method 3:

    If you have any third-party burning software, I suggest you temporarily Uninstall it and then try to burn the disc using Windows Media Player.

    Note: Reinstall the software after the trial.

    Method 4:

    Temporarily disable all programs that could activate themselves, while burning is in progress, such as screensavers or anti-virus programs.

    Hi everyone, auggy,

    I really hope you can help me with a problem I have on a single workstation at my office.  It is an accumulation of 32-bit Windows 7 running MS Office 2010 Standard.  It differs from other generations in our office because it is used by the head of the team of our accounts, and so it has a number of custom pieces of software that she only needs access (payroll software, etc.).

    (a) you need to click on which will generally be a "Browse" button

    (b) a traditional dialog box opens, but instead which allows you to navigate to the location and select the folder you want, he immediately greys out as if the process explore is falling.

    Hi auggy, Andy,.

    Well... in a way, I am very disappointed, but we will respond to it.

    Andy, I checked and iCloud, Control Panel has not been installed on its terminal, but thank you very much for suggesting it :)

    auggi, when I got back on my colleague's PC, I thought I would test to see if the feature didn't always before considering saving data dumps etc, and it worked fine!

    I left it overnight with instructions for the lady who uses the PC to test this morning and see if it's all workers, and it is still, it seems that the fix does not immediately solve the problem of browser, but there later - maybe after a second reboot or something... very strange!

    In all case, this matter can now be considered closed, so all that remains for me to say thank you very much for your help, you are amazing :)

    All the best, very, very,.

    I'm sorry to hear that your conversion process is at a standstill. It seems that the problem is not specific to a single file, you have been unable to convert anything, since the first four chapters of a correct conversion.

    So, let's try this:

    If you want to convert via the ExportPDF site, please sign out, clear the browser cache, and then reconnect. If you use the drive, please choose Help > updates to ensure that you have installed the latest version.

    Please let us know how it goes.

  • "Popup error ' A:\ is not Accessible, incorrect function" when you try to read the "A" drive in Explorer.

    When you try to read a disk in the 'A' drive from Windows Explorer, I get a Popup with a white 'X' in a red circle and a message that "A:\ is not Accessible" "Incorrect function" and an OK button at the bottom.  It happens to any disk, formatted or not, with the files or empty.  I replaced the disk drive - no help.

    I don't know if it's a windows setting went crazy or a motherboard problem.  My BIOS seems correct.  If I do a 'fill' of window hardware in administrative tools he tells me that I have data on the disk.

    I have XP - SP3.

    Any ideas-

    go to a command prompt and type "sfc/scannow" (without the quotes) and let it run... see if this is helpful at all.

    Hope do you feel better soon.
