Absolutely no effect on WMP. My original WMP remains and works. It depends whether you were logging as a privileged user or not. If not, then your browser can't delete the wmplayer.exe file, because the only user that can change/delete the wmplayer.exe file is privileged user. C:\PROGRA~1\Windows Media Player>cacls wmplayer.exe C:\PROGRA~1\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe BUILTIN\Users:R BUILTIN\Power Users:C BUILTIN\Administrators:F NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:F C:\PROGRA~1\Windows Media Player> The problem is just too many people are running their Windows with Full Privileges.
