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

I just installed WMP9 on Win7x64. I decompressed the installer exe and edited some files to get around the incompatibility issue. The install went just fine and WMP9 works for the most part but there is a problem with file associations. Even though WMP9 is the default program for all audio and video formats, Windows still asks which program should be used to open the files and when clicking on a link to a stream.

Also, there are no context menu items such as Play or Que it up.

I will install WMP10 and report back.
