409473 2005-12-02 20:00:00 I got this film on my PC and it wont play on WMP10 . It played perfectly b4 and now it just wont play. I havent changed anything so...
It keeps on saying:

'Windows Media Player cannot play this file, it might not support it...etc'

The thing is that it works on Realplayer and DivX player. But i want it on WMP and I want to find out wats wrong.

Can Someone help plz :help: Is it to do with the windows media player? Its nothing wrong with the film coz it works on the other media players.

=) thnx.

PS. Does anyone know how to uninstall WMP? Coz its not in the Add/Remove place, there is this thing called viewpoint Media player though. It has the exact same symbol as the WMP.

409475 2005-12-02 20:28:00 =( Viewpoint is a Spyware?

Anyways, can u just tell me how to change ONE file to another mediaplayer as default without changing the other files together with it .

So, I want to change that film to Realplayer as Default without changing the other videos in the same folder to realplayer .

=) Thnx

Well, if the other files have the same extension, as the one you want to change, you have no choice . If you change it, so Realplayer plays it, if the other files have the same extension, Realplayer will play them as well .
