I will be so annoyed if I have now lost WMP as I had all my music neatly organised which took me ages to do. won't open or play DVD's So Windows Media Player, VLC, Quicktime will not open or play.

WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER WILL NOT OPEN INSTALL

Download and install VLC player in order to Fix cannot play MOV Files on Windows Media Player issue. When I go to add/remove programs in control panel, it doesn't show Windows media player but when i try to download it again it says I already have a more updated version installed. VLC media player is a free and open-source software that plays most of the multimedia files and it supports a variety of different video & audio formats which the conventional players lack. I was going to do a system restore to before I started trying to get the WLE update but it was over a week ago and I can only system restore up to 5 days ago!! I have followed various threads about opening task manager, it's definatly not already running and I have also tried opening WMP as administrater but it still wont open. I still have the shortcuts to WMP but when I click on it, it appears to try and load but nothing happens. I have a feeling this why I can no longer access Windows Media player on my laptop. once shortcut is on desktop, highlight and right click on your wmp shortcut. find the wmp.exe file and select create a shortcut. I was unable to update to the new WLE and got really frustated and deleted everything Windows live off my computer to try and successfully update this. You could open wmp on library view by doing the following: - go to Program Files folder and find the wmp folder. I have been having problems with my laptop since trying to download the windows live essentials update.
