WMP 10 is Released


Recommended Posts

use system restore to remove it.

why the hell would i do that! just to remove 1 program! thats just crazy!

besides, i disabled sytemm restore as it causes more problems than it fixes. i now use Norton Ghost. but still im unwilling to restore my system for the sake of a single application.

so if anyone knows the command line unistall please tell me.

have you tried it from add/remove programs? it might not be there so you might have to tick the 'show updates' box and then find it.

because it will remove windows media player 10.

You can actually do it from the add remove programs page, but it used to be you had to use system restore to remove it. I guess they changed that.

if been through add/remove programs.

doesnt help

im not going to do a restore my pc and loose all of my settings and stuff just because of 1 program, thats just daft. all i need to remove it is the command line unistall string. then i can install wmp10 and it will work.

10 is a good try, but failed IMHO. This should really be 9.1 and not 10. Minimal new features, none of the suggestions have been added from others, MP3 encoder is nice though. Just a note for everyone, codec owners/developers can now submit there codec's to be downloaded via wmplugins.com {http://www.wmplugins.com/ItemList.aspx?typeid=8}. That's a nice touch, but 10 failed to improve on the issues with 9.

I do think it is kind of funny that they are loading Windows 2003 Server up with multimedia capabilities and such. I guess if I was running a server, I'd want it to be totally lean and clean, without DirectX even. I'd only be using it for file and print serving, so guess I could not see a need for all that fancy stuff they have on the Client side. :huh:

You forget about the companies that use Windows Servers as the base for terminal services and/or Citrix. Clients get a remote desktop from the server and may like to have access to media player.

I get also the red cross: from time to time, it disappears, then reloading WMP, it comes.

However, I cannot get custom skins working. Every skins from MS are working. Skins, say, from the Skins factory, are not loaded/

Does anyone have experienced that problem???

Am I good for an old-fashioned Reboot-Reformat-Reinstall? :pinch:

Thanks.

Finally, I know the reason why the red X appeared in new WMP... Here is the screen shot of WMP 10 English version under Korean language set... ok no problem on butterfly !!

I think Microsft doesn't luanch official online music page yet .. it still beta ..

So, All of man who don't see the butterfly never worry about red X button ...

The time is the key ...

How come Korea has the music store available but the UK does not? Whats up with that?

    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.
    • That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,  
    • Maybe ? DLSS Swapper (can swap the DLSS/FSR/XeSS versions) as long as the game (typically online/competitive) doesn't checks for file tampering. You can try different version(s) or update if not the current version of the FSR. https://github.com/beeradmoore/dlss-swapper
