I really think DEP is the issue, you might want to call the
MS TechNet pages I posted to the encyclopedia authors. They
can use the info to write their code so it runs under the
new protocols.
I'd try that before I started uninstalling software, I doubt
that the WMT 4.q1 are causing a problem if you are not using
WMP.
Post back with a report, I'd like to know if I helped.

|I will switch the DEP and see if this helps in today
evening on my home

| I will also uninstall Windows Media Tools 4.1, which was
installed

I refused
