Hi
I installed the above hotfix to resolve a problem converting WMP lossless files to lower bitrate to play on an SD card. However I must be installing the hotfix incorrectly because the version of WMPLAYER.EXE has not changed to version 12.0.7600.20615 as specified in KB978529. The unzip asked for a folder location and defaulted to c:\, I also tried c:\windows but the error persists and the version of WMPLAYER.EXE has not changed. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong or suggest how I migt get this resolved. DAZED and CONFUSED in DONEGAL !!

After the hotfix has been unzipped to the location you specified, you need to navigate to that location with Windows Explorer. There, look for a file whose name starts with Windows6.1-KB978529 , and double-click that file to start the actual installation.
