Hi Aruaka,

You might check to make sure that "Windows Media Player" has all of it's default associations set to it in step 5 of this tutorial to see if that is the problem.

Default Programs - Program Default Associations

Hope this helps,

Hi Visecuta,

This REG file will add Windows Media Player back for you. Just download and save it to the desktop and right click on it and click "Merge". Click Yes/OK for all of the approvals.

Add_Media_Player.reg < CLICK TO DOWNLOAD

What's in the REG file:

Code:
 
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\RegisteredApplications]
"Windows Media Player"="Software\\Clients\\Media\\Windows Media Player\\Capabilities"
Hope this helps you,
Shawn

Re: Video Thumbnails

You may also have a problem with your codecs. You might want to search into that and see what you come along.
