Microsoft, thank you for this piece of effing shit Win 11 update. I did not have this issue before.
(And right click is disabled on .mp4 files to choose other programs - only dragging to Chrome window helps)
EDIT 2: The tutorial is 100% correct. Kill off MediaPlayer through Task Manager. You never know if it might happen again.
