working___ stop in Windows media center

In this forum, an answer was no problem stopping.  It seems to be a big problem with your consumers.  I don't see any solution yet with other users.  Were there an answer to this question?  Y at - it a update or windows 7 is required to solve this problem?  Or does?

Hi Win22,

A. when exactly do you get this error?

B. were there any changes made recently on your computer?

C. what measures have you tried?

I suggest you follow these methods if you have not tried them on your computer.

Method 1

Step 1

This problem occurs if the Windows Media Center update process (Mcupdate.exe) cannot access the Windows Media Center to store data if the data store is damaged. So, try to rebuild the Media Center data store. To do this, follow these steps:

1 exit any running instance of Windows Media Center.

2 delete the mediaCenterDataStore.db file. By default, this file is located in the following location:
%SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome\mediaCenterDataStore.DB

To remove the file, follow these steps:

a. click on start

(b) in the Open box of start search, type % systemdrive%\programdata\microsoft\ehome and then click OK.

c. in the details, click pane right mediacenterdatastore.db and then click on remove.

d. click Yes to confirm that you want to move the Mediacenterdatastore.db file to the trash.

3. start Windows Media Center.

If the step above does not help, try step 2

Step 2

1. click on the Start button

2. Select Control Panel.

3. double-click on the Administrative Tools icon

4. double-click on Services.

5. scroll through the list of Services and find Windows Media Center Receiver service. You may need to expand the name column by dragging the right side of the column heading.

6. right click Windows Media Center Receiver Service, and then select Properties.

7. click on the connection tab, and then select the Local System account

8. click on apply and then click OK a warning of Services.

Method 2: new user account

1. open user accounts by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety (or by clicking on user accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking user accounts.

2. click on manage another account.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

3. click on create a new account.

4. type the name you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click on create an account.

  • Click recorded TV, it says that "Windows Media Center has stopped working, seeking resolutions... »

    I'm having a problem with Windows Media Center. It starts no problem, but when I click on recorded TV, it says that "Windows Media Center has stopped working, seeking resolutions... "If I click on TV guide there is no problem. I tried a restore, but for some reason any restore function has been disabled.

    (copy - paste from another thread - user has same question):


    You has not, coincidentally, happens to record last Friday (I think it is?) episode of human target (what happened to be replaced by a House reruns), did you?
    Reason I ask: it has been a little traffic on to thegreenbutton on the subject these days - and everyone who reported also arrived to try to save human target.  Somehow, the file finished with metadata is corrupted, what makes MC crash when you enter recorded TV (at best, it crashes when you select the program from the list.)
    FIX: Open Explorer and go to C:\users\Public\Recorded TV.  Find and remove "human Target__"(exemple: «La Target_WDIVDT_2010_10_01».) ".
    Start Media Center, and then try again.  Fixed?
