In early 2009 i make software WMP12 Background Changer. It allows you to switch between famous backgrounds of WMP12's library or disable background. New, second version in addition allows you to replace that backgrounds with custom image, you can use current wallpaper as background and sure, you can restore default images for each WMP12 background. "Replace*" buttons requires admin rights.


Both Win7 x86 & x64 supported.

I have updated WMP12 Library Background Changer to version 2.1
Change log:

• Full Windows 8 support
  
• Bug fixed: after image replacement WMPLOC.DLL has wrong owner (You, not TrustedInstaller)

Unfortunately In Windows 8 Microsoft has removed that six backrounds and you will not able to switch between them anymore as well as you not able to disable WMP12's background in Windows 8. So, I have fixed software and It works with Windows 8 properly.

TIP: To disable player's background in Windows 8 you can set it to transparent PNG image!

Download latest version

FANTASTIC!

Thanks. BTW, it is my first software I have released in early 2009.
And this was start of Winreview project as software development site. However, I reject the idea and move all applications to Winaero.
I won't see my own russian blog as international download center, because it looks horrible for people who can't understand Russian.
