Give option to REMOVE URGE

This is so frustrating. I love Windows and support it but you all are really
making it hard to back you up when you're shoving music sales in users faces
even though they paid hundreds of dollars for an operating system.

There NEEDS to be a way to remove URGE and that hideous button from WMP11.
Search "deleting URGE" and other similar entries on the web and you will find
tons of people begging for this option to be disabled. Everyone from parents,
to businesses, to every day users. So many people are going back to WMP10
because of this.

Honestly, this "feature" is a slap in the face to your customers. Please
make a way to remove this ASAP!

Re: Give option to REMOVE URGE

Thanks, it's great to know that URGE is no longer part of WMP11. However, I
still do see the "tab" (is that the button?) for URGE. I look for it in the
uninstall list but I don't see it (maybe I already did).

I have read about many other people uninstalling it and the button still
being there. Please suggest this to Microsoft and vote or tell me a way to
remove it please

Re: Give option to REMOVE URGE


Click on the chevron just beneath the image and select "Media Guide".
Voila.

WMP10 has this too, it just says something other than Urge there - Napster
or Media Guide, I think... ?

Re: Give option to REMOVE URGE


That only loads if you move into that area of the library. Just switch to
any other node of the library and you should be good.

You can go to "Browse All Online Stores" and select some other button type.
=\

The feedback has been passed along. =)
