Re: how do I uninstall wmp

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

No I have not run any cleaner, should I? when I said I deleated the files I
was in the folder and they kept coming back.

I hacve tried the rollback several times but the 11 is still the
main/default player.

If you delete the Windows folder for WMP, you will cause problems and may
break the ability for WMP to uninstall itself. Please do not do this - you
will only be causing problems and not solving anything that way. =\

Did you run CCleaner on this system... ?

roll back WMP. =)
