• Windows Media Player is missing in Set Program Access and Computer Defaults

  I recently discovered that when I wanted to install a default media player, Windows Media Player was absent from "Default programs". When I ran a search on this problem, I had the suggestion that I enable access to Windows Media Player with "Set Program Access and Computer Defaults." However, when I tried this, I found that Windows Media Player was also absent from "Set Program Access and Computer Defaults"! Now, what I want to know is, how to restore Windows Media Player in the list of Set Program Access and Computer Defaults?

  Here's a hint: I do not have full access to Windows Media Player via the start menu.

• How to set Windows Media Player as default for ripping the CD program

  IMesh

  How can I reset Windows Media Player to be the default for ripping CD's?  A few months ago, I downloaded IMesh to try.  A month later, I deleted the application from my computer.  Now Windows Media will not rip the CD that I put in.  I checked the default music Ripper and there still IMesh as the default Ripper.  I tried to delete IMesh again, but the default is always the same. Help!

  You need describe what symptoms get any decent help - explain what stops you rip the CD.

  As a first response, try to run these troubleshooters [those of "BOLD" seem the most relevant].  They will reset your Date last played info & info sides as these parameters are in the WMP library functions.

  Control Panel, troubleshooting, hardware & sound, troubleshoot the audio recording & audio playback.
