Troubleshooting Windows Media Player
-
I have a Windows 7 Ultimate machine where the Windows Media Player hangs whenever I tell it to play anything, be it a file or an internet stream. I am at a loss as to how to troubleshoot this. I have tried doing a clean boot, and that doesn't fix it. Can anyone suggest some strategies for troubleshooting this?
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Check your audio devices: can you play with a different software? Take a look at the event viewer: any messages related to the application hang?

Hi There, Try Uninstalling and reinstalling Media Player. You Could do this from "optionalfeatures" Command. Just uncheck the Media Player and recheck again after the restart. otherwise check if you any update pending to install. Hope this Works Thanks
