Be very careful with this!
users using WMP12 says there is an error which leads to corruption of your mp3 files on your computer (when played)…Microsoft is aware of this and has promised to fix this before the officiel beta release..and there will soon be a fix on windows update aswell..

WINDOWS 7 SUCKS! - How many fools will not even see that Microsoft only changed the look of functionality which is exactly the same as Vista, same functionality means you have the same OS. What a waste of a billion dollar company. What are they doing at Microsoft?, cutting their toe nails all day long? Microsoft always sucked and will always suck.

After following every instruction and restarted the pc, I proceed to launch wmp from my quick launch..
“C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe is not a valid Win32 application.”
I decided to go into Program Files to launch the setup.exe and the wmplayer.exe. Same prob.
What did I do wrong?

This is not for Vista this for Windows 7!This is from DeviantART from Mikasi2009 http://misaki2009.deviantart.com/art/Windows-Media-Player-12-0-7000-107532875 . Even he said this is for Windows 7.I intentionally tried it and this DOESN’T WORK ON VISTA.Taking ownership is easy and you can do it with TakeOwnership.reg which you can google on net.
