 Re: Guide: How to install Windows Media Player 10 in Windows 7
Well as I said in an earlier post only WMP 11 works on Windows 7. I cannot install or get WMP 9 or 10 working on anything but Windows XP.
But I find that both WMP 11 and 12 falls short of the features in WMP9. The taskbar toolbar of WMP 11 does not work on Windows 7 and there are no visualisations in WMP 11. Not even on Windows Vista.
So I have installed Winamp media player which works on all versions of Windows,including Windows 8. Winamp has lots of visualisations that are very much like WMP9 and all of them are working. Also Winamp has a plug in called Tray Control which gives you the taskbar toolbar like WMP does.
So Winamp is an option if you are looking for visualisations and the taskbar toolbar not in WMP 11 or 12. Winamp also has lots of plug ins that you can add to it. It does not play all video files but is a good audio player. And a lot of the features of Winamp are similar to WMP 9 and 10. Andrea Borman.
