Hi MRZAG

Its likely its just turned off and needs turning back on. Have a look here see if that gets you up and running - http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/5023-windows-features-turn-off.html Its in the media features tab.

Done it and wmp does not install

Did you enable all the media features as I think some are dependent on others.It will require a reboot.

Also, make sure that it's enabled in Default Programs.

You cannot uninstall or re-install WMP as it comes as standard on the windows 7 cd.If you have followed all the steps posted it would appear your only options would be a repair install - http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/3413-repair-install.html or use another media player - http://vlcmediaplayer.softuk.org/

Hello MRZAG

There is no way no reinstall WMP12 as its shipped as part of windows7. The nearest you can get is to turn it off/on in programs and features - http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/5023-windows-features-turn-off.html
Try running a system file check see if that finds anything - http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1538-sfc-scannow-command-system-file-checker.html then turn it off reboot and turn on again. Its a bit hit and miss but may work.

This is ridiculous.

I upgraded from 7 home to ultimate, and since then (2 yrs) I have been asking why with the upgrading, wmp 12 dissapeared and am unable to re-install it.

I have done all the suggestions from: prog & feat to re-install 7 ult.


Will i have to pay more to get what I paid for???

GREAT RESPONSE!!!


I'm surprised that after 2 years, you havent just did a clean install of Ultimate.
Several guides exist to teach you how to use an upgrade dvd for a clean install.

I downloaded the upgrade from MS. How may I get the cd from them?
