DRM folder

[Oathsworn]

Hi Folks

I am trying to d/l a tv programe, but the Vista Media Player, says "Windows
Media Player has a DRM error that prevents iPlayer from downloading and
playing programmes."
The help says "Either you are told that a "DRM reset is required" or else
the Security Upgrade button is greyed out."
Where is the Security Upgrade button, if it exists. As I have not seen a
message saying DRM reset is required. Having said that if it does need
resetting how do I do that. TIA.

Hi Bob

Thanks for the replies, I will have a look at both options and see what
works.

Hi Bob

Found the Security Upgrade button greyed out, so used the link above and
found the DRM folder. The only problem I can't access the folder and I
can't seem to find the right way of gaining permission to access the folder.
TIA.

Hi Bob

Followed the instructions, but there is an error and it won't let the file
change the registry. It says it cannot import the file, error accessing
registry. TIA.

Hi Bob

That option does not appear when I right click on the file.

Hi Bob

I followed the "Take Ownership" instructions, but the system would not allow
the Registry to be altered and there was no Run as administrator option.
Why is doing something as simple as trying to d/l a video so complicated,
most things in Vista, seem so easy then you get things like this that
require so much effort.

Possibly there is a conflict with your AV program. Norton and McAfee are
known to cause issues with Vista.
