    I am sorry warp4dennis but you have lost me!
    Are you trying to run VLC on a 64-bit Windows OS or a 32-bit Windows OS?
    The screenshot that I gave you was to download the 64-bit VLC!

    My Windows 7 is 64 bit. And when I went to the web page I chose the 64 bit version.
    I suspect that Windows is trying to load the S/W in the x86 folder!

    I have seen that error message many times over the history of Windows, generally it turns out to be a fault in the software due to a bad download.

    It may be worthwhile trying to download again - I always go to the source for the single download

    Hi Barman58,

    I have just noticed that the link I provided was an HTTP, whereas your first link is exactly the same other than it is an HTTPS link, and therefore covered by the SSL protocol which mine obviously wasn't. I will remember to check that next time there is a need to post a link for VLC. Thank you for that.

    That said, I will probably use your second link as it covers all the OS's.

    The HTTPS is the secure version of the standard HTTP protocol and these days I would carefully check any site that does not use HTTPS before use as it is much less secure

    I have on my PC, Sonic CinePlayer, along with Real Player. Would there be any advantage for me to replace them both with the VLC software?

    There are, in my opinion, several reasons to use VLC as your major Media Player

    • It's open source the actual code may be examined closely so any tracking and such is in the open (and not there BTW)
    • it's been in development for many years, (1997), so is stable (downloaded over two Billion Times)
    • Is still actively being developed
    • Works with internal Codecs so no extra packs to load
    • Seems to play anything passed to it, both Audio and Video files
    • Works on many platforms - use the same controls on you computer, & smartphone & iPhone
    • Appearance may be changed to suit your preference and blend in with any theme you use
    • will also allow you to stream video around your own lan or even the internet
    • I'ts totally and completely free

    Try using the "J" or "K" keys on your laptop. Just click once and the audio should either go forward or backtrack a few seconds.

    I think the problem is that you're loading a development version of VLC Media Player. You should be downloading/installing v3.0.4. You can get it here-
