Program Crashes

[Joel]

I installed the latest version of media player the other day- along with an
extra bit that it suggested about some kind of Windows Live integration
system or something similar. Now, Windows Live won't sign in, half the time
Media Player won't run and crashes, a lot of windows boxes that contain media
files continually crash too and I can't seem to play embedded quicktime files
on webpages. I'm guessing that the problem is some conflict with the new
version of media player, but can I get hold of the previous one anywhere?

Hi Joel,

I would restore a recent backup if you want to get rid of all of it.

Here are some ways to roll back:
