Re: Guide: How to install Windows Media Player 10 in Windows 7


So the info from jondoe666 has got me closer to having it installed on Win7 Ultimate x64...thanks!

It is in the programs folder, it opens from the desktop shortcut and it plays mp3 files from my hard-drives.
BUT...
-> I can't access some of the menus, ie Tools/Options to change settings - the menu drops down but nothing happens when I click on the menu item I want.
-> CD's play, but no audio from speakers (works with MediaMonkey).
-> When I try and rip a CD I get Error 0xC00D0FAA - (WMP cannot rip the track because a compatible MP3 encoder is not installed etc etc). I have searched for this and checked all suggestions with no success.

I have WMP10 installed in a virtual machine as well and I copied all registry entries from the XP Virtual machine relating to Media Player and added them to my Win7 Registry but that hasn't helped either.

We're getting closer! Any advice?
