| Ultimate x64; Home Premium x32 | Windows Media Player crashes on launch So I have this infamous windows media player crashes on launch issue after I did a restore from one harddrive to another using Ultimate x64 backup feature. Now whenever I launch windows media player it crashes on launch with the indiv01.exe fault. I looked at the guide to fix it and how I need to edit the registry, but I have no registry entry for DRM/DataPath. How would I add it or does anyone have more detailed steps on how to set this up if I don't even have this registry key? I also do not have any DRM content, so this might be why i don't have this datapath. I'll do a re-install if I have to, but I really don't want to at the moment.  |

| Vista Ultimate SP2 x64 Windows 7 Ultimate x64 TECHNET | Re: Windows Media Player crashes on launch Hi soulesschild, Have you run system file checker to restore any missing/corrupted system files? Run Checkdisk as well. System Files - SFC Command Check Disk - chkdsk If that doesn't work, try repairing your OS with the repair option on your installation disk, if you have one. |
