My father passed last Monday. I found an old file with photos from 2005. 2 were video clips that wouldn't open. After downloading this I opened the first one. It was the song we played for him on our last Zoom before he are flowing. Thanks so very much.

I'm from Vietnam. thank you so much!!! I tried to fix it for so long. It really worked.

[Snippets-of-Mendi]

Thank you. I decided to try this and it totally worked. I will say the first time I tried to download from your link, it downloaded some other "Brave" software instead, but I decided to try again and at first my problem videos still wouldn't play, but I recopied the video files from my phone after the download and those same videos now work. You're a lifesaver!

ETA: I just notice it actually didnt fixed my windows media player but this added the mpc-hc (x64) which worked. @f&D let me know if I miss something.

I dont know whether or not it works but after that intro noise I don't think it's worth finding out
