I've had limewire basic for a while now and before all my videos that i have downloaded on limewire were viewed on windows media player. I left my computer one day, come back the next, and everything switched to quicktime. My quicktime is messed up big time and I cant even uninstall it or reinstall it for whatever reason. I want to know how to switch my video player back to windows media player. Some advice would greatly be appreciated.
Thank You!!! Last edited by theherooftime63; August 9th, 2006 at 02:24 PM. |

(edit)
Outside of Limewire Just right-click on a videofile, choose open with>choose program. The click on WMP and check the "always use on..." box. Press OK You have to do this with all formats. (e.g. if you do this with a .avi file then Quicktime will still open when clicking on a .mpg file) Last edited by Sleepless; August 11th, 2006 at 12:19 PM. |

Oops my bad
You have to do this outside of Limewire Your downloads will usually be at C:\Documents and Settings\**Your Username**\Shared |
