After having windows 10 Home N installed my two Nikon cameras would not link to Adobe Lightroom or show as connected in File explorer. All of my music files would only show the name of the file in File Explorer and all other filters had no information at all. After installing the Media Feature Pack all of these issues resolved themselves. So glad I found your video.
I could not open free version teacher suggested in the link. Quick time version 7.1 or later is required says my CS5.5. What does it mean? I am using Windows 10 pro. I have Media player there I think. Must I install media feature pack? Please, help me Charli.
I just had a lady come to me and ask where is media player, my dvd used to play but now it doesn't .... I installed VLC player for her and yes WMP had disappeared. Thanks for this Video mate.
Dude what happen to editing album info in WMP? I remember I was able to manually edit song and choose the track number for that song but now I can't do shit but rename the tracks.
For the october 2020 update: The Media Feature Pack for N versions of Windows 10 is available for download as an Optional Feature. To install the Media Feature Pack, navigate to Settings > Apps > Apps and Features > Optional Features > Add a Feature and find the Media Feature Pack in the list of available Optional Features. Note, you will not be prompted to restart your computer, but you must restart in order to successfully complete installation of the Media Feature Pack.
The N Build was required by EU many years ago and the rumours are that a bare handful of PCs a year had it installed - in the real world it is almost as rare as the Northern White Rhino. I would be more worried about WMP being removed from all W10 versions as MS wants us all to use Groove and Films& TV apps (both of which are cr*p)

Hi, I couldn't find "the Media Feature Pack" , but after Settings > Apps > Apps and Features > Optional Features - there is "Windows Media Player", I have clicked install button, but the installations failled, what is the reason?
Thank YOU ALOT!! i tried alot of methods ..even contacted microsoft support but they cudn't solve my issue!! it took me only 3 days thanks to you !! liked and subscribed really helpful vid ♥
Hello. I hope you still read comments here. I have this problem where I have the N version like you, I downloaded the Media player from Microsoft website and restarted the computer numerous times, but it still doesn’t show up. When I try to install it again it doesn’t work. Any suggestions? Thanks!
The same thing happened to me! Last week I had VLC, WMP, and that "Movies & TV" thing ALL PLAYING the same video so I could compare quality. Well, just now I was trying to play a video in WMP because the default "Movies & TV" seems to randomly reframe and cuts off portions of the video. I can actually see the black edges shifting, trying to frame the video, when it settles down the video frame is slightly cropped - WHAT A CROCK!- Anyway I wanted to use WMP but apparently MS has disabled it. It appears as though everything is there still in "program files x86", but NOTHING will respond. I did an update a few days ago and that seems to have queued up it's death by MS. AAaarrgghh
My music , all songs is gone ! just downloaded my music into my new computer with window 10. Today I find out the songs are gone . Please help. Thank you.
Hi Brian and Readers. I have windows 10 media player (recently upgraded from windows 7) I have a library of CDs ripped to my P..C and on my previous windows 7 player I was able to open the album and it would display a "play all option" which played the album right through. I cannot find this option on the windows 10 player anywhere? I've tried highlighting all the tracks, right click the album etc but still no luck. I'm currently having to play one track at time, very frustrating!!. If anyone can help I'd be most grateful. Many Thanks
I have had that same problem, with Windows built in "Photos" default app. If I let it import to the default "Pictures" folder, it is fine, but if i try to use any other folder, it automatically freezes and then shuts down. I just started importing to photos, then moving what I needed or I just manually import with cut & paste...
I tried but still doesn't work for me, when I installed, it didn't tell me to restart but just to close. Even after restarting manually still nothing. Microsoft is really good for putting spywares all over the places but can't make a fucking default program work
Best video player by far is mpc-be. Click on videos to pause/play, thumbnail for video frames like youtube so you can easily skip through videos, and much more. Play with the settings and youll see. I was all about vlc first then i found mpc-hc. Thought i hit gold until i found mpc-be, diamonds!

Click on Apps & features. Click the manage optional features link. Click the Add a feature button. Select Windows Media Player. Click the Install button. Install Windows Media Player on Windows 10 Once you’ve completed the steps, you can start using Windows Media Player again on your Windows 10 machine.
OMG thank you so much! I've been trying to figure this out for several days now and my pc was close to flying out the window lol. I can finally play GTA again!! haha
For some reason, Windows Media Feature Pack wants for me to have Windows Media Player, but your computers needs Windows Media Feature Pack to have Windows Media Player...

What is quick time? I could not open free version you suggest. Quick time version 7.1 or later is required. I am using CS5.5. What does it mean?
Why use Windows Media Player when you can use AIX Video Player, an advanced media player with many features?
I will check that program out Paul. Thanks!

Use VLC and Plex they can do so much more than WMP. I also use Kodi the legal way.
VLC does play music but it has no menu to list music. Plex is great at streaming media, but I like a simple program that plays music like WMP.
@ByMind Did you solve this problem? I need it for premiere too!
For me it's saying "media player components unavailable" i'm on WIndows 10 Home 64 Bit
How do I know if I have the "N " version ? That is the only thing that confused me.
go to system
or go to my computer click left botun then click the last one

weirdly my media player never went missing.
Maybe you have the right version of windows? lol
I have Windows 10, but I don't know why my media player never went away even the microsoft support guy was surprised lol.
