- Done everything you said Jeff. Still no luck.
Is there a way i can reinstall my media player?

- Hi Jeff.

That update is not for my system (windows says so).
I think i will have to do a reinstall of my os.

By the way Thank's for your concern.

Hi Faraz,

Are you aware if there was a windows software update before you restarted the system? What i suggest is to restore the settings back to the working time.

You may run the system restore. Just follow the instructions below.

1. click on start then go to All programs, click on accessories then click on system tool and system restore.
2. a pop up window will show up. just look for a specific date to click on to restore the settings back to the working date and time.

note: your files are still intact.

keep me posted!

regards,

JEff

If the issue still the same, i suggest to restore the settings back to the time before you encountered the problem then run the codec below.

- Hi,

With regard to your inquiry, you cannot remove windows media player from the system because it is an embedded application that came with Windows Vista. If this is the case then we might need to try updating your media player.

Restart your system after installing the update.

Keep me posted.

Regards,

Jeff
