No. This is a joke. I shouldn't have to download some .reg file, then click OK, then reboot, then click OK., then merge, then check that the registry setting is right, then...
just to make a...
And of course I can't change the,. The "Change program" doesn't work. I had this problem setting them in the first place and had to try 3 different ways before I could actually set default programs,...
Fair enough. Sorry. I'll try changing them to something else, then changing them back.
What I mean is, it shouldn't have been released until these problems were ironed out. Just look at the number...
And now it's working. For now. These problems, the other one is windows suddenly telling me it's missing some protocol file, then I reboot and it's apparently back (where did it go? Why is it back...
Thanks.
I now have a related problem. I'm editing the .htm file, occasionally saving, and viewing it in a browser as I update it.
Suddenly, it won't allow me to save it any more - says I need...
OK, so file association for .htm files is set to my text editor.
For some reason, though, the text editor won't open when I double-click a .htm file.
I get the blue spinning timer thing for a...
Hahaha, and now it's not working again. The EXACT SAME FILE in the EXACT SAME DIRECTORY that I played 10 minutes ago now won't work.
I didn't open and close the player or the directory. Nothing,...
Yes, I've used VLC but for some reason it often gave a hissing sound, which is why I switched to WMP. And WMP worked fine on Win7.
Well strangely enough WMP is now working for flv files. I didn't...
OK, so once again, Windows Media Player will not play certain filetypes, specifically .flv files, despite the fact that it recently would play them.
I have the k-lite codec pack
Any solution...
This one
3. Start button > Settings > System > left side, Default app > right side, click Choose default applications by file type > click at the program set as default > a drop down box will give...
Yeah, the "choose another app" doesn't do anything. There's the blue spinning "timer" icon for a second, then nothing.
"Change program" doesn't do anything. Again, timer icon, then nothing.

OK, so I open up "file properties" and I want to change the program that opens a particular file type when I double click it.
Windows 10 won't let me do this.
None of the buttons work - the...
No changes, using the original charger, not sure why the charger position would affect it but thanks.
My charger is always plugged in since the battery broke and I removed it
OK so now if my touchpad is switched on the mouse cursor sometimes makes continuous erratic movements around the screen. Turning it off solves this problem. Is this a sign it's wearing out, or is...
OK so disabling ipv 6 and using 4 seems to have partly solved this. However this is the 3rd time I've attempted to post this reply.
Wouldn't it be better to find out which protocol was missing and...
Yeah, this works sometimes if I double click on the program icon to open it, but if I open it by double clicking on a media file it doesn't
Hi, Is there a way to get WMP to open maximised when I double click a video file, instead of opening just the size of the video? Is this a setting within WMP, like play maximised, or is it a separate...
Hey, do I need a separate installation of Adobe Flash for each browser?
Well I kinda assumed it might be.
Everything has worked until now, with WMP and the windows 7 codec pack
Windows 7 Codec Pack
It was working with Win10, too, until recently. I suspect it...
I can't find any "media features" and it's not listed under Programs and Features anyway, so I don't seem to be able to uninstall it
I can't think of a good reason why the same file doesn't work 5...
OK I tried again
I'd like to know why windows media player won't play my media files after a reboot. Didn't change codecs. Didn't delete anything.
I did try to restore cos I suddenly couldn't go online but the...
Seemed to solve the problem but now has suddenly recurred. Why would a file be deleted while I was actually using the Internet?
I'm now trying to restore
Restore failed to work the last two...
My main issue is that the problems I've had with Win10 didn't occur in Win7, and they're mostly simple "a particular icon won't display" or "I keep selecting an setting and it keeps reverting"...
