Windows 7 - Mini Player toolbar missing from taskbar
Asked By Dak
28-Jan-10 05:28 PM
Just installed 64-bit XP Pro. On my 32-bit install when I minimized WMP11,
the mini player would minimize to the lower right taskbar area without
appearing in the regular taskbar area with other running apps.
I cannot for the life of me get it to do the same on 64-bit XP. What am I
doing wrong? The only toolbars that appear in the toolbar menu are Address,
Links, Windows Search Deskbar, Desktop, and Quick Launch.

It seems that XP x64 does not include a 64-bit version of the WMP
toolbar. You could try to get the 64-bit version of wmpband.dll from a
Vista installation and register that in XP, but I am not sure that this
will work.
Alternatively, you could download the Windows Media Bonus Pack for XP,
which has a powertoy to control WMP from the system tray:

Why do you still use Windows XP? Windows 7 Give your reasons. Do you plan to upgrade ever? If so, when and why? If you use both XP and 7, do you ever plan on ditching XP for good? What will you do when support is dropped to the point where this OS will be problematic with new hardware? Personally I am waiting for Windows 8 to release a second service pack. XP sucked when it first came out until SP1. Even then, I find the moron-babysitting did not work, it had to enabled then disabled to be disabled for real. Sigh. . .

Chkdsk / Scandisk Windows 7 I still use Windows98 most of the time. I am not fond of XP, but I have XP on my laptop computer, and must keep it to use the WIFI. One thing that really irks me about XP is that it no longer has Scandisk. Chkdsk is really a major pain to use dropped it in favor of this worthless and annoying Chkdsk. . . . .

cannot access WINDOWS UPDATE successfully . . . keeps soliciting New!Get Microsoft Update today! Windows 7 I am running Windows XP SP3 Home Edition on 1 of 4 PC's and it is been updated through early April 2011.

Recently, around the middle of April 2011, each time I went to Windows Update, the page initially appears and I can briefly see the 2 buttons (of which Get Microsoft Update today!"
