uhh.. when you install media player, there's a dialog box somewhere in the installation that lets you decide what kind of music files you want media player to play. you just have to check them.

manually open windows media player, it should give you a prompt stating that win med player is no longer the default player, it will ask if you want to set win med player back to default player, tell it YES. if the prompt does not appear then you need to click start, click Set program access and defaults.  click the down arrows to the right of custom. Scroll down to media player now select windows media player and then click ok, it should work just fine now

I'm assuming that when you say Windows Media, you mean the video/music files.\n\nOpen Windows Media Player and click Tools/Options/File Types and tick everything in the list.\n\nApply/OK.\n\n------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nJust in case you meant the Windows Media Player icon, then that sounds a bit dodgy and you may have some spyware/virus installed (make sure you have a check), but you can restore it back to the Windows Media Player icon...\n\nRight-click the icon and click on 'Properties' and at the bottom, click on the 'Change Icon' button and a window will pop up.  You will need to Browse to:\n\nC:&#92;Program Files&#92;Windows Media Player&#92;wmplayer.exe\n\nand select the icon.

Media Player 7.01???? Holy sh*t!! Update your software. you have to realize that your old busted software isn't capable of doing everything you want it to do. Simpy put, you are going to have to break down and buy new stuff.

I have been asking what this was for awhile now. Finally, I deleted Windows Media Player totally off my computer and re-downloaded it, as well I "saved to computer" and now mine works just fine. Good luck!

Real Player can be set to be the default player of your system while installing it. If you have not done it at that time, don't worry. Try this. It will help you.\n   Open the player, Go to Tools>Preferences. Then, in the window that appears, see on the left side. You will see a drop down tree. Locate the Media Types button under the Content Tab. Now on the right pane you will see the files types. Click on Advanced button located there for more options. Check all the file formats here or click select all. You are done.\n       I hope, my answer helps you. Good Luck

To return to Windows Media Player 9 it mostly require a System Restore checkpoint in Windows XP.Note that decision to use system restore will revert your latest user setting to a earlier state, and it may damage all the installed software which only appear after that checkpoint was generated. Be careful if you are going to use it.\n\nTry this: Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs, click the big button 'Add/Remove Windows Components'. Look if the 'Windows Media Player' checkbox is available. If it is there, tick it and click button 'Next' to proceed.\n\nThis act may require Windows XP CD which match to your PC's version, except you're using a genuine Windows XP copy comes along with your PC/Laptop manufacturer (as the operating system contains a system resource backup in the harddrive).\n\nIf you cannot rearch this solution, you will be forced to repair/rebulid your copy of Windows XP using a Windows XP installation CD. The system performance, user data safety & all installed software functionality are not promised.\n\nIf you're using a genuine Windows XP copy comes along with your PC/Laptop manufacturer, you are forced to run a factory recovery from the system recovery CD/DVD shipped to you, or a recovery partition (which is hiddren from you, please record a phyiscal copy to a set of CD/DVDs using manufacturer's application for safety, read user guide about this.) inside your PC/Laptop harddrive. You have to follow the instruction(s) from manufacturer. REMEMBER THAT ALL DATA WILL LOSE, PLEASE BACKUP THEM FIRST.

1st, why reinstall windows...just remove spyware. IF your mp3's were licensed protected, you are going to have to go back to where you purchased the downloads from and get copies of the licenses reinstalled. Otherwise, you have a problem with your Media Player. Go to MSN.com , go to downloads and refresh your media player by downloading again.
