    Windows Media Player 12 stopped working suddenly, wont play mp3 or wav


    I have WMP12 Win10 64bit.
    It was playing WAVs and MP3s fine, but suddenly stopped working.

    Cant find a WMP12 download anywhere to try reinstall.

    I also have asio4all on my computer but thats not active I believe.
    Groove Music plays all fine. Why has WMP12 stopped wortking?

    :)
