Then click on Edit...; In actions if there is something that says Open, select it and then click edit. then make sure in the 'Application used to perform action' make sure the following is stated 'C:\PROGRA~1\WINDOW~1\wmplayer.exe' /Open '%L' including the quotes. this will mean that you open the file with Windows Media Player. Then if there is the word Play in the actions select it and click Edit.. Then in the 'Application used to perform action' make sure the following is stated 'C:\PROGRA~1\WINDOW~1\wmplayer.exe' /Play '%L' With the quotes. Make sure that Play is in bold if it isn't click on Set Default. If either or neither Open or Play are in the Actions then click on New...; And in Action Type either Open or Play And then place what I stated above in Application used to perform action Hope this helps :)	Guest (0)
