some internal error has occured in my windows media player.
reinstalling it doesn't work
is there any other media player that can do it.
even real player can't play them without wmp and sometimes show some licensing problem to upgrade / restore licenses but even there is an error in updating/ restoring licenses.
Pl help :roll:

I guess u never heard of anything called 'GOOGLE.COM'.

And, BTW, there is something called 'Media player Classic' that comes with 'K-Lite', which plays wmv (and is far better than the WMP made by Micro$hit), but I guess u didn't know that too.
