    Windows Media Player supported formats?


    In Windows 10 October 2018 update, are there any formats that are supported by Windows Media Player that are not listed in the Default Apps sections of Settings? I know that WordPad supports doc files on a basic scale, but this function is hidden, manual association needs to be made. I prefer Windows Media Player on my LTSC desktop to VLC due to the organised interface, especially on music, but I also keep VLC in order to play the formats that WMP does not support. If I install VLC with the option of file association, there is at least one file format of WMP that still needs to be associated with WMP when VLC is installed even when WMP is selected as default audio and video player. So, I wonder if there are some other formats that are supported on WMP at least on a basic level that are not listed into Default Apps.

    :)

    Converting iTunes to Windows Media Player

    My wife has an MP4 player and it doesn't support iTunes music formats. Is there any free software that converts these file types to wma or other supported windows media player formats?

    New Windows Media Player Plugin for Firefox

    Anyone who uses Windows Vista and Mozilla Firefox may be pleased to hear that the Windows Media Player team has now released a plugin for Firefox that should allow the browser to play WMP content on websites. Here are the steps to get it working:
    • Installation of the Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin may require administrative access to your PC. It is recommended that you close all other open browser windows before continuing with the installation.
    • Click the Install button to automatically download and install the Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin.
    • Depending on your security settings, you may see a Security Warning dialog box. Click Install to install the plugin.
    There is a known issue if you are using Firefox version 2.0.0.3 on Windows Vista with the installer failing with error code -203. To work around this simply restart Firefox (you will get a notification that Windows Vista will be changing the Firefox compatibility settings) and then install again - the second time should succeed.

    The download is available here, and the new plugin works on all versions of Windows XP and Windows Vista (although it is mostly intended for Vista, as that currently has no WMP support in Firefox).
