  3. Unable to install Windows Media Feature Pack correctly

    As the title says, I'm unable to install the Media Feature Pack on my Windows 10 Pro N machine. I've downloaded it directly from Microsoft ( Download Media Feature Pack for N and KN versions of Windows 10 from Official Microsoft Download Center ) and startet it, but when I open the Control Panel
    and browse to Programs->Enable/Disable Windows Features, media player features are missing entirely from the list.

    Furthermore, when I open (the new) Settings->Updates and browse to see the installed updates the Feature Pack for Windows (KB3010081) is shown. However, when I click on deinstall updates I see a new update list (in the old Control Panel) und the Feature
    Pack is again missing...

    Do you know any way to install the Media Feature Pack properly?

    FYI: It was working fine before the big november update.

    Edit: Apparently Windows 10 November Edition needs a different Media Feature Pack than the normal Windows 10.

    The right version can be found here: Media Feature Pack for Windows 10 N and Windows 10 KN editions (November 2015)

    Unable to install Media Feature Pack

    Installing Windows Media Feature Pack...

    OS: Windows 10 Pro N, 64-bit, version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.685)

    The Windows Media Feature Pack includes Windows Media Player (WMP) as an optional app, since Windows 10 version 2004 I believe. As such, installing the semi-annual updates removes the previous version of WMP and the updated version is not installed by default.

    Installing WMP seems simple enough, via "Settings\Apps and Features\Optional features\Add a feature", except when it is not. After trying to add Media Feature Pack feature, it display a blank list:


    Unable to install Media Feature Pack [​IMG]


    The image above should have a list of available apps in alphabetical order, but it's blank. Searching for the apps in the empty list obviously results in nothing found.

    The system in question has local accounts only, no MS account, has internet access and receives MS and other software updates without any issues.

    Does anyone have an idea as to why the optional feature list is empty? I am lost for the reason...

    TIA...
