Windows 7: InstaCodecs

huffman · 31 Jan 2012

Just wondering if anyone has installed InstaCodecs.

PopularDownloads.com - Detail: InstaCodecs

Before I install this, are there any benefits to using it. I already have K-lite Mega Codec installed.

Thanks for any info.

Hi.

By using Windows 7 you dont need any extra codecs.

Codecs in many cases make things worst,especially if you install multiple packages.

But if you really need codecs use this sevenforums member Shark007 codecs.

I agree with Panais in that Windows 7 is fine as it is.

Thanks for the replys guys. The only reason I installed K-lite Mega Codec was to get the player that comes with it.
