I believe that's what I said on this thread's page 1. Read what was said on the first page ... shoot, on all of the pages before posting please.

I'm thinking about installing this one, but guys is there a way to remove it if something goes wrong? I can't seem to find any uninstall function for current version, so how about it?

System Restore if you REALLY want WMP 8.0 back, but after seeing THIS new WMP9, I'm sticking with it til the final. This HAS to be what the public is in store for when MS releases the public beta Sept 4th.

And Duh, of course WMP needs to be excuted&in full mode before it goes into taskbar mode. You think you can just open it and it automatically goes to taskbar?? Don't think so. lol. But least now we have the option of turning this feature on&off. But to turn it off would be pure stupidity. lol

well I guess my last/main question is can the future version be installed up ontop the beta? I know that in case of Windows itself it is a mortal sin to install a final ontop of beta, format is an optimal way to go. I realize that WMP9 is not Windows, but still did you guys have any probs updating from last beta to this on?

No restart needed for me,

all thats needed is to minimise windows media player then right click on taskbar - select toolbars - windows media player.

edit spelling :)

Does this version have the ability to rollback/downgrade to WMP8, without having to restore/reinstall windows? I would hate to install this thing and get stuck with it if something bad happens.

well maybe it plays it default now... before you had to drag the DAT file (which is a MPG renamed) to WMP for it to play. Maybe just putting in a VCD now starts up WMP. I haven't tried it yet but who knows...

none of them ever will.. You always have to use System Restore of format. This is meant as an upgrade to what you already have and MS wants everyone to use it so sooner they'll get the idea of using the latest software.

IC. I have read through this topic and it seems like 2773 is a stable version, am I correct in thinking this?

Seems like it to me. I love this thing! Taskbar is working fine here.

This is really nice. Brought my old live sound card to life.

Have it install on win2k with sp3 and no problems except no taskbar option.

Installed on winxp pro no service pack and taskbar works fine. No need for reboot.

This is my new player of choice. :D

Actually, you can set the WMP 9 icon properties to open minimized, so for people who actually liked that shellplayer powertoy, they can have WMP 9 open minimized at start-up and it would be almost the same, but better, lol.
