Hi Everyone.......I'm still holding onto Windows 7 Pro and just tonight ran into a new problem. I am unable to open videos in Windows Media Player that have the .avi extension.. It works ok if I use the VLC player that is installed. Can I make the VLC player the default or do I have to fix the WMP so that it plays everything?

You can make VLC the default for .AVI files by right clicking on an AVI file and selecting 'Open With'. Now select to choose another app. Make sure to check the box to always use.

Subtext can be fun, especially when you have no idea what is actually meant... :shs: :blush5:

:rofl2: Doddie, in a previous thread where I helped, Allyson 'threatened' to take me to Victoria's Secret as a thank you.
