WMP will not play music
This is a new install of Windows 10 Pro.
I constantly get the message " Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file."
I have installed the lite pack and then the mega pack. Same thing occurs. VLC player and Groove will play without problems.
Any help would be most appreciated.

Re: WMP will not play music
This is a generic error message that WMP shows. There can be many causes for it.
Since this is a new install, my guess would be a problem with the sound driver. I suggest re-installing the Realtek driver and also the AMD driver which includes HDMI audio driver.

Re: WMP will not play music
I would never have expected that. Thanks, problem solved.
