I tried all the methods that you have mentioned here but still my problem persist.
My problem is that I cannot open a video file to play on Windows Media Player using OPEN WITH on the Context Menu. I can Open With all other media players except WMC. However, I can play any video clip directly Opening it on the Windows Media Player Icon on my desktop. If I keep this WMP window open and try to use Open With command on Context Menu it works but only once. The next time I try to open the same file error message shows up. “Server Execution failed” So my problem is that I can open WMP directly from the ICON on desktop but not from the Context Menu from desktop.
I cannot open WMP from desktop icon, or context menu. I tried all of the above fixes, nothing helps. I had this problem for a while (like 4-5 months) never bothered to look into it, so I dont know what I could have done to stop it working. Please help
