WMP and DRM
I am trying to play a digital copy of a movie, which is giving me the following before it will allow me to input the code:
You must upgrade security components of Windows Media Player so you can play protected files on your computer. To upgrade please follow the instructions below:Now I click on the supplied link and get the download box greyed out:
- Step 1: Click here to get the security upgrade.
- Step 2: After the upgrade is complete click the "Next" button below.
Security component upgrade
This page lets you upgrade the security components of your digital media player so you can play protected files on your computer. To upgrade your security components, click Upgrade.
Note: When you click Upgrade, your computer will connect to a Microsoft-operated Internet site and send information about your digital media player, including a unique hardware identifier. No information will be sent that can be used to personally identify you or track your activities. Microsoft will then upgrade the security components of your digital media player to ensure that it runs with optimal security.
I have tried both IE and forefox browsers.
I have followed the instructions that I have found both on other forums, and on microsofts site itself to rename the DRM file, which actually screwed up my access rights on my pc somehow!
I do appear to have a drmv2clt.dll file, however through the hours of attempting to sort this issue I was advised somewhere along the way that I am missing the DRMClien.dll file which I dont have (is this a new naming feature for 7 or something?)
Does anyone know what could be the issue and how to resolve it please?
Thanks for your help
