Windows 7 - How to turn back WMP

| | How to turn back WMP As long as I've had the computer I never set up WMP. Don't use it. Today in the course of troubleshooting (no WMP add-on in IE8) I reluctantly started setting it up. I must have cancelled at some point so now I have some of my media files (music) loaded in when I start the program. I want to get back to where it was. Meaning it has not been set up (gives the prompt to start setting it up). Any way to do this? Will a ui/ri still leave me with it enabled? Thanks |

| | msdt.exe -id WindowsMediaPlayerConfigurationDiagnostic I believe running that line from the search bar (may have to go command line) will solve it for you. |

| | The wizard won't load, an error occured. That can't be good. A system restore got it back to how it was (not set up) but the troubleshooting wizard still does not work. Suggestions? Last edited by bru; 07-05-2011 at 08:15 PM.. |

| | Okay here's my last thought to turn it to default state. control panel - programs and features - Turn Windows features on or off Scroll to media features expand it Untick media player and okay through it. Reboot, go back to the same place and tick the box again okay through it. If that doesn't return it to default/initial settings, I don't know what will. even that isn't actually removing it, it's kind of disabling it and restarting it. |
