Media Player 9

By peetree ·
I have Musicmatch and I am completely satisfied. Media Player 9 wants to load. It asks if I want it to be my default media player. Of course I don't. I do have some video files that need WMP 9. Once installed how do I make it so it's not my default player?

If you are using XP, go here for instrucs, just take the same steps but with Music match as your choice instead of WMP, andif you ARE running XP and you still want to keep WMP upgrade to version 10, it lets you select which files it plays by defalut as you install it. So does v.9 if you just want to run it's setup again.

If you have an older version of Windows like Win2K, first of all congratulations, just open Windows explorer/my computer and go to TOOLS> Folder Options from the top menu bar. Select th eFile Types tab and it lets you view all file types, you can set which program each extension opens with, so you can tell it to open a certain video file with WMP and MP3's etc with Music match.

Good luck.
