How do I uninstall Media Player Classic.

MPC doesn't require installation, so just delete Mplayerc.exe if you
doesn't want to use it.

Kindly regards.

don't do so, just stop using it. It is needed by several apps and
stuff, think of "Media Player Classic" as a skin or facade like
you maybe already know from IE with browsers like Maxthon, Green
Browser or alike, they all use the components installed by IE and
cannot run without IE working. And there are services that do not
work without the underlying app, "Windows Update" with IE, audio/
video codec handling and DRM with Media Player. And system sounds
as well.

If you still wanna remove, use "Software" from system settings,
remove every entry you find in programs list and then go to
"Windows components" (or what it is called in english UI) and
remove tick from "Windows Media Player" setting. I don't think
you can remove more than this without harming your system.

Regards,
Thorsten

It would probably be a good idea to deregister any file associations first:
View - Options - Formats, Deselect all ticked boxes, Apply.

Friends,

Thanks for all the responses.

I am happy to say that I don't have any more problem with my PC.

Not being a computer savvy person I don't know how it recovered.

But let me share my information of what I did FWIW.

I have Spybot SD (advanced mode) and I went to Tools > System Internals >
fix selected problems.

I think after this My computer was back to its original state.

Thanks & Regards.
