Problem with Windows Media Player
I used to be on windows 10 pro version 1709, but I decided to update to 1803 (OS Build 17134.191), and after I did, I updated my Shark007 Codecs (Advanced Version/32 to 64-Bit bundle) to version 10.4.1
Normally when I update, I have no problems at all, so I doubted I would after this, but for some reason, windows media player went full retard. I decided to put a music video on that I downloaded a long while back (a .mkv file), and I tried skipping ahead by moving the seek bar, but it wouldn't work. it was stuck and wouldn't let me move ahead, although I could still pause, stop, and skip to the next video(s)/music. This problem does not happen with any other video/music format, only isolated to .mkv files at the moment of this post
I ran a dism /scanhealth check and a sfc /scannow check, an error check-scan (right clicking C: drive), even a virus scan with mcafee and superantivirus (all updated to current builds/virus databases). No dice; if there is a method of fixing this, any help will be appreciated. perhaps a way to replace possible corrupted WMP components?
