I am no expert but for the second problem, I would shut down and start up
again, sure seems easier than the steps you described taking. Still if
someone has a better way, I am listening. I don't like to have to do this,
and I believe in access being convenient. So my primitive solution, which I
admit to, is not the solution I am happy with.

Subject: [VICUG-L] 2 windows media player issues


Hi all,
Here's the problems I need help with.
1.  I'm now using windows media version 10 which I just upgraded to.
However, now, whenever I connect and play a windows media file, the file
plays, but now, the dum thing is saying "please wait while windows media
player contacts the msn store."  Now folks, I don't want this stupid thing
contacting the msn store, how can I get rid of that contacting it, so it
won't contact the msn store?
2.  Someone told me to upgrade to version 10 of media player, and my problem
would be solved.  Well it's not.  So, here's the problem.
I can play a file in windows media player on billsparks.org like from a
radio station, etc., but, then, the moment I play a file in winamp which is
a winamp file, then, I go back and try to play a windows media file, windows
media player comes up and says, "the file you are trying to playing cannot
be played by the default player.  It is corrupted."  So, then I have to go
into windows media player and configer it again by going to options then
going to the file types page, then clicking the select all button, then
clicking apply, then clickinbg ok.  Then I can play any windows media file
again, at least until I play a winamp file, then of course any windows media
file won't play because the default player which is suppose to be media
player cannot play the file.
So, what in the world do I do about this?
Harry
