Windows Media Player 11 in Vista Home Premium not working

Seems like there are quite a lot of us out there having probs with WMP11 just
suddenly stopping working for no apparent reason. I've realised that there
is no update or cure so think its time microsoft made a patch to repair WMP11
or brought out WMP11 beyond 11.0.6000.6336 so people can download something
to repair their WMP11. Whats the point in having a computer when you can't
even listen to music on it!!!!!!!!!! I miss windows XP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It really is playing up ... started off with suddenly not being able to get
into playlists, i'd got loads in there and was really pleased with the
results. Now although I can play them, I am unable to open them and simply
view them? Then all of a sudden I couldn't even open WMP at all. I tried
restoring back in time but then lost all the music, even from my library. I
undid the restore and it would open again but still was unable to get into
view playlists. I've tried reinstalling vista from the vista disk ... wont
repair?? Never have been able to transfer music files from other programmes
into the WMP library?? Can rip CDs though. Just not having any look with it
at all. Didn't have any of these problems when I used XP and the player
could be reinstalled seperately and thus be repaired. What do you think? Am
I better off just using a different player all together until microsoft
release something that will repair it?? Although I can find my way round a
computer I certainly wouldn't describe myself as proficient ... more like
scared of making it worse??

hehe.. this isn't the first posted problem but since i found ya again..

apparently our version of the needs to be updated (thats what the error msg
says) but when we go to the MSWMP new download.. it says it cant download it
because the version that is already installed IS the newest version available
and there is no way to repair the problem. this is making me so sad!
