I have had Windows Media Player 11 installed on my computer since the update
for it came out....so needless to say I've been running it for quite some
time with no problems.....then yesterday out of nowhere I started
experiencing difficulties like it wasnt monitering any folders...and no
matter what I did I couldnt get it to...well I was tryin to see if I could
figure out why and I accidently rolled it back to Windows Media Player
10...and I have tried downloading Windoes Media Player 11 again hopeing it
will work fine but I cant install it for some reason because an error message
keeps poping up after i agree to the liscence agreement thing....its not a
problem of validation because I click the Validate button and it goes to the
user agreement step...then when i click I Accept it goes to another step
where it says please wait....but then all of a sudden a box with a big red x
on it intitled Windows Media Configuration Manager:

An unexpected error has occured. Setup was not able to detect any Windows
Media updates. Please Try Again Later.


I am really getting frustrated at this point and I just want it to go back
to Windows Media Player 11 and work fine...can someone please help me out??

Click to expand...

Try re downloading and re-installing it on top of itself. Makes sure you
have all Windows updates.
