Designed by media lovers, for media lovers. Windows Media Player 12—available only in Windows 7—plays more music and video than ever, including Flip Video and unprotected songs from your iTunes library!
But, Sometime when we try to play a .mp3 or .avi or anything of the sort with Windows Media Player, it says "Server execution failed." This problem may happened due to the following resion.
•WMP may not be set up correctly and may not run as expected. WMP may have to run the first time setup to correct settings.
•The settings for WM network streaming may be corrupted. This prevents streaming video or audio from playing.
•WMP Library may be corrupted. This causes media browsing and search problems in WMP.
•Nero Video Burning Plugin is incompatible with WMP 11 or newer versions, and may cause WMP11 or newer to crash or stop responding.
•WMP 11 does not start, or some UI elements are blank.
•CD/DVD player is not working with WMP.
