Windows Vista Media Player 11 Doesn’t Open Properly Wednesday, November 14th, 2007

 

Sometimes when I click on either an audio or video file that is associated with Windows Media Player 11 nothing seems to happen, The player doesn’t open for example.

However I can hear the audio from the content but I cannot see or switch to the Windows Media player application.

Tip: The only work around I can find is Control-Alt-Delete and look at the Task Manager see if the wmplayer.exe is running. If so end it and start over, it works second time for me.

If your having a bad Windows Vista day check out my favourite grumpy old man John C Dvorak’s column for today: The Vista Death Watch
