Hi all, i was downgraded my wmp12 to wmp11 but after using it for 1week i found that the wmp11 in win7 is not complete (with bugs). I love wmp11 features very much, but because of those bugs i decided to restore back wmp12 until the bugs have been solved.
The below is the bugs that i was facing, just share with yours...hopefully someone can solve it soon...cheers

1) Double click on music file, the music doesn't play and window explorer hang (need to force close).
2) right click on music file, click on "add to wmp play list", no response and windows explorer hang (need to force close).
3) cannot resume last played music everytime restart the wmp.

Thanks!

has anybody else had the problem in the 64 bit version where you go to delete that reg key and it isnt where it should be? there isnt even any "media player" listed under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SOFTWARE\Microsoft for me, it is under hkey_currentuser_etc, and there isnt any setup folder in there...

why when it comes the WMP11, lots of guests and new users post? Some kind of a hot topic?

Can anyone help me? I'm trying to get last.fm audioscrobbler to work with this version, but while other plugins (from the Microsoft website) will work, the audioscrobbler plugin in the WMP plugins folder won't be recognized. Does this version not support plug-ins?

I'm pretty peeved that Microsoft could've crapped up this bad. If the advanced tag editor wouldn't work with the new architecture then they should've written a new one.

Hello, I'm trying to instal windows media player 11 on my windows 7 64 bit. Here is what i did and i need help before i go any further



http://www.blogsdna....n-windows-7.htm

I followed these instructions in ^this^ ^link^. When i went to run the installer, one of the files in the setup couldnt be copied. So i was like, what the hey!! And i was reading the comments that people put and you mentioned that you forgot to mention that those instructions were for windows 7 32 bit and you gave a link for us with windows 7 64 bit http://www.winmatrix...indows-7-skin/. So when i saw this link, i decided to delete the folder that was created in program files/x86 in windows media player so i took ownership of that file and deleted it. I also deleted the windows media player setup file that was extracted with Winwrar. The reason i deleted that was because that was for windows 7 32 bit and i dont need that file since i have windows 7 64 bit. Before i go any further since my windows media player 12 isnt working at the moment cause when i tried to open it a window popped up and stated: the item you have selected is unavailable. It might have been moved, renamed or removed. Do you want to remove this from the (start) list.



So what i need to do now is download windows media player 11 for windows 7 64 bit and i would like to know if you can refresh my memory a bit and give me clear instructions on how to do it. THNX alot, i really appriciate your help and will be waiting for a response, specailly since my windows media player 12 isnt working according to the windows statement that popped up when i clicked on the windows media player 12 icon on the desktop. THNX again.

os: Win7 Pro.. Did not find Mediaplayer\Setup in the location stated. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ ect. (Registry)
I had to do a search, and I found one at. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\mediaplayer\Setup

I deleted the installed versions folder from there.
I also found a folder named Player Upgrade.
There was a value in there pointing to version 12.0.7600.1645
I changed the value to 11.0.6000.6324
Did a reboot, and it workes perfect.

Thanks for the info, Great Job. !!!

I have windows 7 64 bit home premium. Does what you mentioned apply to me?? When i tried doing this i tried to open the program and it said it was impossible to use win media player 11 since win 12 was the latest update. Keep in mind i didnt change the value quoted above. THNX
