wmp11 wont close after exit

wmp11 continues to play tracks and avi clips in the background after exiting
from the program and program then has to be closed via task manager, is there
a fix to resolve this?

i have tried changing the codec packs i use on the system with no luck so far.

right click your Taskbar>Toolbars>Windows Media Player

Remove the check beside Windows Media Player

Re: wmp11 wont close after exit

worked out what to do with the quote and thanks for your help MICHAEL,
unfortunately by following the instructions i got the error module was loaded
but the call to dllregistryserver failed with error 0x8002801c, would it make
a difference that im running x64 rather than x32 vista?
