WMP has been giving me problems recently, like i'll open an avi, and wmp will open then it'll just crash.
It doesn't appear to be in the add/remove programs list anywhere, and when I click the setup program in prgram files\windows media player it says it's already installed and is the latest version, so doesn't need updating.
Any ideas?
How do I reinstall WMP?

Well you can get a basic version of WMP 10 free from Windows, IIRC; it won't play DVDs or anything, but it'll play most media files. As for how to uninstall it... that's weird. :/ Look again? You may have to manually delete the folders and registry entry if that's the case...
It's a strange world. Let's keep it that way.
Do not use Windows Media Player for AVI files. Use VLC Media Player. VLC is a great player.

This sounds more like a codec problem than a problem with Media Player. Do you use a codec pack? If so, uninstall and reinstall it.
In terms of players, you could also use Media Player Classic. It's just like normal Media Player, just without a playlist function.
