I have a video that I downloaded. The initial format of the video was .flv. Using a softwware program, I converted the file to an mpeg file, but what I noticed was that it was being saved as .mpeg_ . When I took out the _ the icon of the file changed to a filmstrip icon. According to help file documentation, Windows Media Player is supposed to be able to play, and in fact supports, the file format .mpeg. Why is it that when I double click the file, Windows Media Player gives me an error message stating that it can't play the file? I am using Media Player 11, and I checked the Microsoft website, and that is the most recent player available.
The fact that the pref is not enabled by default tells you that what you see is what you get...for now. Hopefully the final version will have all the quirks ironed out.
It's enterprise, not consumer. And "...affected scenarios involve third-party software..."
Would be good to know that in headline, not way down in the article.
Instead, you lead with Windows update, which is not very helpful and misleading, IMHO.
Just saying.
Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience.
Firefox 152 understands 'Sssh!'
The new version also understands that sometimes you just want it to shut up. When a tab (or, worse, multiple tabs) are playing audio, if you go to the address bar and type “mute” (or “sssh” or “hush”), then a new Quick Action button appears beneath it offering to immediately silence all tabs in all windows at once.

What else in Windows will play an mpeg file?
