Hi! I´ve been having this problem since two day ago, mi win media player (not MPC) comes whit an error message everytime i try to play any kind of video file. I have allready installed the latest drivers for my video card and chipset updates, etc. and the latest K-Lite Codec Pack updates as well, but I can't get it to work. Weirdst Thing is tan today, after re-installing teh SO I were able to watch a full movie, but after a cupple hour being shut dow, my pc decided to stop playing again.
I've make miself sure that no other updates were istalled on my pc, so i really don't kmow where the trowble comes from.
I will be really thanksfulle if someone could help me out.
Pd: Sorry for my poor english.

Windows 10 silently updates stuff in the background, including drivers. One way to prevent that is to set the Windows Update Service to disabled.

The problem is most likely caused by the graphics driver.

You can see details about your current drivers through:
Codec Tweak Tool > generate log > system information
I would be interested in that info as well to know which driver version is buggy.

Thanks for the info. Good to hear you found the cause.

Windows should really show more notifications and details when it updates drivers. And also make it easier to prevent updates or revert to an older version.
