You also have the option of setting Windows Media Player as the default digital media player for one or more specific file types rather than for all audio and video file types that the Player supports. For more information, see How do I make Windows Media Player the default player for a file type? (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/faq/playing_files.mspx#q1_11)

In some cases, you might set Windows Media Player as the default digital media player for a specific file type but a different player or program opens that file type instead. For more information, see Why is a different player or program opening my audio and video files when Windows Media Player was set as my default digital media player?
