Hey! I need some help here... When i try to open a video to watch it in windows media player 12 a window pop up and says: "There was a problem in Windows Media Player while playing the file." That happens on EVERY video file i try to open -.- So PLEASE HELP ME! ^_^
 

It's possible that all the videos you try to play cannot be played by Windows Media Player (the codec isn't there). What are the file extensions on the videos you're trying to play?

Was this file downloaded from an internet source?

Sorry for the delayed response.. Download VLC and see if that will play the file. If it does, proceed to download this codec pack for WMP:

Free-Codecs.com : Download K-Lite Codec Pack 7.2.0 FULL, K-Lite Codec Pack 7.2.0 STANDARD, K-Lite Codec Pack 7.2.0 BASIC : K-Lite Codec Pack is a collection of codecs and related tools
