Something happened to my computer that caused WMP to stop working. I receive a message thatWMP is corupted and asks me if I want to download and reinstall it. I am redirected to a download site I download the installation web site where i Download and try to install or repair WMP. But I Receive the following error message: "There is a more recent ersion of Windows Media Player (11.0.6000.6344) already installed on your computer. It is not possible to use an older installation package (11.0.5721.5146) to install files or to repair your current version of the player." tell me the link I need to get the correct version of WMP.
When I play an audio track it plays fine. When I grab the progress bar and move the slider up a little bit further into the track time I have to wait maybe 30 seconds before the audio playing catches up to where I moved the progress bar to. Is this normal in WMP11?
I am not able to view picture in a video on Windows media player 11 and Vlc Media player. I am trying every thing out, but nothing works. I have a new Sony Vaio-VGN FZ21Z
As near as I can tell, I have WMP version 11.0.6002.18111 installed on my Vista Home Premium system. I haven't used it in a while, so I'm not sure when the problem arose, but whenever I try to play a file or even just open the player, I'm informed it has stopped working with the following information provided:
I can't track down the correct files at the MS site to reinstall, and I'd rather not use System Restore since I'm not sure how far back to go or how many things would be undone.
i open windows media player and putsomething to play, a small windows pops up and says that windows mediaplayer has stopped working and it says its looking for a solution. After a while it says " a problem caused this program to stop working correctly, Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." then it closes the program with my consent. This never happened to me on my xp pc which had WMP 11. This is happening on my new vista pc that's just a few days out of the box and i even have full norton anti-virus protection. So is there any way to fix this problem or do i have to use some other program?
I have recently been experiencing big problems with my new medion notebook. i'm not sure why, but only 3 weeks after i bought it many programs crash and give me the following error message: Windows media player has stopped working. etc. My wireless internet button wasn't working till i re-boted, system restore won't start when i click it. Some videos wont open or will crash.
My system has been hard rebooting due to a bad video driver... now if I start windows medis player if greys out on me and says: "Windows Media player has stopped working". Is there a way to uninstall WMP and then reinstall it to fix the issue.
wmp on vista dont show me video no more ? when i play any video file on it its only plays sound i have install codec same thing !!!! i have remove iTunes , divx player and the codec and wmp dont show no video just sound,,, i dont have any restore point and i really dont wanna reinstall vista again :S so if there any way to reinstall wmp on vista ? im running Vista Home Premium 32bit OS
I recently did a system re-build, as per my specs. I've been having awful crackling and sound stutters which sometimes appear to be causing lag spikes in games too. (Having said that, I get it even when doing simple taks like listening to music or watching movies on iTunes/Windows Media Player.) I've done all the usual things like updating to the latest BIOS/drivers, but still it won't go away. I've moved the sound card to another PCI slot and checked there's no IRQ conflicts too...
I also have a network sharing service problem - Vista displays, occasion (and I havent worked out WHAT occasions yet): "windows media player network sharing service stopped working and was closed" - followed by some bulls£$t about windows informing me of a solution when it becomes available. This pop up appears relentlessly - about once every 30 seconds, and i can see the system performance hitting 100% CPU for 5 seconds or so each time it does.
One some of our computers we havea problem with media player 11. Sometimes starting a video it won't show the footage cause media player is already running in the background also sometimes when we quit the program it keeps on playing the sound. Only way to pass the problems is killing media player in the taskmanager. It's very annoying. Anyway to fix this?
Suddenly media player just won't launch, even with run as administrator. I tried downloading media player for vista but it won't install saying there is already a Newer (?) version on the computer. So I tried uninstalling the existing version but it doesn't even show on the list of programs for uninstall. Not sure where to turn. This happened once before but a reboot fixed it.
wmp stopped working. here is my problem info .. Problem signature Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: wmplayer.exe Application Version: 11.0.6001.7000...................
We have a security camera that takes a short video when motion activated. The file is then emailed to the tech guys. I cannot view the video. It opens Windows Media player and then just sits there with a blank screen. I can use XP and the file plays just fine, just not on my Ultimate computer.
First of all I'm on vista home basic, second of all wmp was already installed on my pc when I received it. Lastly, it's always had this problem When I click on a mp3/avi/any wmp associated file it will launch the file audio, I can hear it BUT wmp doesn't open, I have to manually launch wmp before I can stop the file or do anything else.
I googled the problem many times and tried solutions but never got anywhere. I reset the assiociated files, I've checked for updates , I've run out of ideas. I was even going to unistall and reinstall it. Yet I can't seem to get a vista version from the microsoft webpage ?! So I don't want to uninstall it and loose it, or even try using wmp 10 instead, I'm worried it will mess up my machines default settings and/or media center!
I know there are some other threads about this problem but i can't post a reply there. I have a problem with wmp 11. It was working ok, but one day it stopped opening. Even if I double click it or if i try to open a mp3 file, it won't load.I tried to delete the registries,as i found somewhere on the net, but nothing happened. Any solution found?
I'm running Vista Home Premium and I can't find Windows Media Player. Microsoft has a page with a banner for "Windows Media Player 11 for Vista" but there is no download link. How can I get it on my system?
I have vista basic and windows media player(v11) is slow as crap. after the window appears it'll take about 20 seconds to load the media that's available(just to get it to a point where it'll respond. then after I select something it lags for about 10-20 seconds and then a 'media changing...' message appears at the bottom left and it'll be about 20 seconds to play that file. so from start to wmp playing something takes up to a minute. wmp11 on my xp puter(512mb hyperthreaded) blows wmp11 on my vista laptop(gig ram amd 64 x2) out of the water. is there something like some setting or something I can change to make things run faster? I like wmp11 and don't want to dl winamp.
As soon as it opens, it crashes. I uninstalled Nero, which I have read can cause issues, although it was installed and working at one time. OS is Vista Business
Here is the report. *problem signature *problem event name: appcrash application name: wmplayer.exe application version: 11.0.6001.7000....
As the subject line says: Why can't I play DVD's in Windows Media Player for Vista anymore? This is what I have installed as for the Windows Media Player for Vista. Look at ALL the listed under "MPEG/DVD Filters" I have. So why in the hell I can't play simple retail movie DVD's anymore.

It seems that drivers responsible for multimedia keys are malfunctioning, because sometimes when I press they key the operation assigned is performed twice. This refers definitely to Windows Media Player (I don???t use other).
- I have Windows Media Player playing some music in the background
- when I use Internet Explorer (it is my active application) and press ???pause??? button on the keyboard the music pauses ??? everything is ok.
- when I use Word (or any Office application) and press ???pause??? button the music pauses and after a fraction of a second it starts playing again. When I press ???next??? WMP jumps 2 songs forward. I don???t have any software that could affect functioning of extra keys on the keyboard (only IntelliType). Morover I know that other people have similar problem.
I had some spysweeper remove some files and my windows media player won't open neither will any of my other .wmv files. How can I reinstall or get the media player to work? There's no uninstall or repair feature on the remove programs.
In an attempt to reinstall Media Player 11, I trashed all icons associated with the media player and am now unable to create a shortcut icon for the desktop; it turned out that the problem I was trying to resolve needed only the download of an update, which I did, and now the program works. I know that the program is on my computer because it opens when I click on video files, but surprisingily it does not appear in the list of programs, so I can't make a shortcut icon from it. How do I make the icon so that I can open the program from the desktop?
I know this is a vista group but i don't see a windows 7 group. i had disabled autorun because i don't like it. however, if i'm playing music in wmp and i put in a cd that has video either dvd or wmv/mp4 files, wmp suddenly stops playing the music and starts playing the video files on that cd. if autorun is disabled, why is wmp automatically doing this?
I lost my Windows Media Player icon on both the desktop and quick launch. I finally found the program when typing wmplayer.exe in the 'run' box. The program is up, but I can't add it to the desktop or the quick launch, how do I do this?
