Windows Forum / Windows XP / Video / November 2007Not able to play .wmv file
Have not been able to play .wmv files sent thru emails. Windows media player starts, the file appears in the play list, but when I attempt to play it, I get a message that says Windown Media player cannot find the file. Any suggestions?

Not a answer but the same problem as yours with the .wmv files sent through the emails, my WMP 11 says that I need a codec and to go through the d/l plugins web site and go to tools/options/network and set it there, I checked further and all the files extensions are set to play in this WMP version, but it refuses to play it anyway, any solution to this very anoying problem???

I have the same thing--won't play directly in WMP but when I save it to a folder(or the desktop), it will play from there. So, does anyone know what causes this--why you need to save the file first before it will play? Ken I have been dealing with this same problem for several weeks now. It doesn't matter if I save the file to the desktop, folder or disc, it still won't play. It's only media files attached to emails that are a problem. No one seems to have an answer. The mystery is why this suddenly occurred after being able to play these files with no problems in the past.
