Vista - cannot close windows media player when i click the 'close' button

the windows media player screen closes but the movie or music clip just keeps
on playing in the background, when i open up the player again, it keeps on
playing the movie until i click on stop.

I have the same problem, any answers???

Click Stop before closing it. This is being researched, SP1 may have
improved behavior here.

if anyone still has this problem then heres what i did....go to task manager and go to the processes tab.....scroll down and end wmplayer.exe....now turn on wmp and it will say something like wmp wasnt closed properly....forget bout that and there you have it....if it doesnt work then

If it's not closing when you tell it to close, that indicates that something
still running on your system told the player not to close yet. So you'd
want to figure out what that was so you don't accidentally break whatever
other service/device is trying to use the player.
