Hi, I tried to roll back my windows media player, but the roll-back failed (through add/remove programs). Now It wont start and gives an error message claming that WMP is not installed properly, and asking me if I want to re-install, but when I run the installation file, it claims that WMP is already installed. I'm stuck. If anyone knows a quick fix for this, or what file(s) need to be deleted for the installer to see that WMP isnt installed, please advise. If not please reccomend alternate Media players (with library, as similar to WMP as it can get) Thanks

Hi, that didnt work because Windows Media player is missing from the specified directory. I ended up using system restore, it was my last resort. Thanks andyways for the help/
