Reinstall it. Just download the setup file from Microsoft's website and then install it again. If reinstalling doesn't work, then I don't know what the problem could be.

Hi the mask, Is it error message COOD11CD, you get ?
That is what I get since I did what Wienrsnitzel told me to do on my own post=uninstall all codec and install K-lite codec pack. I spent the whole day digging in this shit but there are millions of reasons you can get this message, so I learned from Windows error Forum. It;s seems that some shared .dll, files went to garbage when I uninstalled all my players. I have found some of them on the net, but now there are something else instead, CRAP.
I will tell you if I get a solution on this matter. If you get it before me please tell me. you can e-mail me at: [email protected]

@the mask:

Thanks. I had the same problem with WMP. After reading your solution, I uninstalled K-Lite Codec Pack 2.24 Full, then reinstalled it (without codec compression). Problem solved.
