Re: Windows Media Player won't start
Hi Zach,
I have been scouring the net looking for an answer to this problem for the last couple of months on and off and I see your responses everywhere. I have been to your website and I have tried many of the items there.
I upgraded from XP to Vista Ultimate x86 in March of 2006. WMP ran well up until the beginning of this year (Jan 2007) when all of a sudden I have the same problem as everyone else here. I must close WMP in the task manager to run media content on my computer or on the net. Something else that others haven’t mentioned is that my PDA won’t sync unless I stop WMP in the task manager first, once I do everything works fine.
I did run your registry.exe file from your website and I have run regsvr32 jscript.dll like Paolo. Both ran successfully without changing anything as far as I can tell. I notice you asked if Norton Internet Security 2007 was removed recently and coincidentally I did “upgrade” to Norton 360 around that timeframe. For some reason my system restore points from around this timeframe and before are missing too. This also happened around the same timeframe so I wonder what event took place to change all these things.
WMP works fine as does syncing if I end the WMP process in the task manager first but I would like to fix this small problem if there is a fix.
Thanks,
Scott |
