re: Uninstall Windows Media Player from XP Wednesday, May 7, 2003 at 5:05 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by SystemResearcher (4 messages posted) Yeah it can be done, for all of you who say it can't -- you obviously need to do your homework. wmp.inf - located in \windows\inf =2 key items= First - [WMPUninstKey] is there but has not script actions. Second - Bottom part of the .inf you will find this PROMPT_UNINSTALL_COMPLETE = "Microsoft Windows Media Player uninstall is now complete." CONFIRM_UNINSTALL="Are you sure you wish to uninstall the Microsoft Windows Media Player?" TITLE_UNINSTALL="Microsoft Windows Media Player Uninstall" Plus in the registry you will find this: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer] "BlockUninstall"="Yes" huh....insteresting isn't it.....if it's impossible to uninstall why would they need to block such an action by a registry key, and what about the other point I brought up? a Prompt to uninstall in the file it's self. Anyone care to help figure this one out? On Thursday, January 3, 2002 at 6:47 am, Pierre wrote: >I would like to complete uninstall windows media player out of my Windows XP. Is >it possible?
