Windows 10 I want my taskbar in windows media player

[Cretos]

Windows made a poor choice doing away with the taskbar in windows media player. I want it back! I have looked online but the steps I found do not work. I have downloaded the WMPbandfile and extracted it but i cant seem to acess the WMP directory in program files so i can copy and paste WMPbandfile there. My processor and windows 10 are both 64bit. Anybody have a solution?
