    Windows Media Player Streaming Not Responding


    Hello:

    Recently I have had trouble with WMP Streaming not responding. All other parts of WMP work fine. When I try to enable other streaming options, view discovered devices, allow all devices on the home network to stream then click OK the Windows streaming function it hangs up. I then get "Windows media player streaming not responding." I have done scannow, WMP stop and start

    This is new and has never happened before. I would be grateful for any help!

    @Eagleshadow,Hello and welcome to tenforums.

    Use DISM to Repair Windows 10 Image

    Please try dism option 5 RestoreHealth to see if it finds and fixes any problems.

    Media streaming not working or turned on in Windows 10 seems reasonable to try next.

    Use the recommended #5 RestoreHealth option - I wrote 6 in error.

    Dism


    I will try this soon. WMP is non essential and since it may tie up the computer for a couple of hours, I have to make sure no one in the house is inconvenienced.

    Thanks for the speedy response!

    My experience has been that it takes less than 30 minutes, so if you allow an hour, you should be fine.

    [1] Does this only happen with WMP?
    [2] Have you tried any other Media Player?
    [3] Have you checked for any new MB and Graphics drivers?
    [4] Have you downloaded any WU's recently?
    [5] If so, have you got a System Restore Point prior to this happening that you could try?
    [6] Have you tried re-installing WMP?

    I hope this helps.
