    windows media player wont launch when links clicked in IE11


    had some bad virus a week ago got that cleaned up and now when I click on a video link that should open windows media play it does not

    it worked until my computer got infected

    I have windows 7 and Ie 11 it works if I use firefox but I prefer ie11

    I reset ie11 and still no go windows media player is set to paly all formats and is the default player it plays any formats it should

    the only way I can get links to play is to 'save target as" save it then play it that way but that's a PITA

    hope someone can help!

Is there a good reason why MS don't equip either the media centre or the media player with the ability to play MP4's. I don't see why they can't play them,and surely it would be in MS's best interest if they could play them.
