  1. Windows Media Player Streaming Not Responding


    Hello:

    Recently I have had trouble with WMP Streaming not responding. All other parts of WMP work fine. When I try to enable other streaming options, view discovered devices, allow all devices on the home network to stream then click OK the Windows streaming function it hangs up. I then get "Windows media player streaming not responding." I have done scannow, WMP stop and start

    This is new and has never happened before. I would be grateful for any help!


    Version 10 1909 X64

    :)

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

    What is the exact error message you get when you to try play files on Windows Media Player?

    I suggest you to run both Windows Media Player Library and Settings troubleshooter and check.

    Step 1: If your computer is having problems playing video or audio files in Windows Media Player, try using the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter to fix the problem. The troubleshooter checks the configuration and network settings
    for Windows Media Player to make sure that you can play content you've downloaded and saved to your computer, or content streaming over a network or the Internet.

    Steps to run Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter are as follows:

    • Press Windows key + X and select Control Panel.
    • In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click
      Troubleshooting.
    • Click View all, and then click Windows Media Player Settings
      and follow the instructions.

    Step 2: If your computer is having problems accessing your collection of digital media files in the Windows Media Player Library, try using the Windows Media Player Library troubleshooter to fix the problem. The troubleshooter makes sure
    Windows Media Player is correctly installed on your computer, and checks to see whether your Player Library is corrupted.

    Steps to run Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter are as follows:

    • Press Windows key + X and select Control Panel.
    • In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click
      Troubleshooting.
    • Click View all, and then click Windows Media Player Library
      and follow the instructions.

    Please reply us on the status of the issue to assist you further.

    Hello JohnBoardman1, my name is Irisdiel and I am an independent advisor.

    Down below I'm going to provide you with methods and instructions that can lead you to a probable solution on your issue.

    Method 1: I would suggest you keep the computer in clean boot mode and check if the issue persists.

    A clean boot helps to verify if any third party application services or startup item is causing this issue.

    You may refer the following KB article to set the computer in clean boot:

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: After the troubleshooting steps, refer to Step 7 from the clean boot link to set the computer back to normal startup mode.

    Method 2: I would also suggest you follow the steps to run the Troubleshooter from the link and check if the issue persists.

    Open the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Ope...

    For reference, you could also change your settings for streaming media in Windows Media Player if your issues persist:

    Thank you and good luck,

    Regards- .
