Hello I downloaded Windows Media Player 11 about 2 months ago. Recently, I have tried to purchase music from Musicmatch, but when the system is starting to download it encounters a problem and fails to download. I have contacted customer service and I was told that my version of Media Player could be the problem, and I should try Media Player 10 instead. The problem is I do not know how to uninstall Media Player 11. Can someone please help me? I have already tried starting my PC at another date (system restore) and I have not been able to go back very far. Thank you!

Click start, control panel, add and remove, tick show updates, click media player 11, click remove

It should roll back to the previously installed version

hi,
try this:
Start>Settings>Control Panel>Add/Remove programs [this is for the classic start menu, if ur using normal control panel should be in the right pane]
the list will take a while to load
search it for "windows media player 11" or something like that. click remove. it should uninstall.

I downloaded Media Player 10 from the link you gave me and it says that a more recent version of media player is installed and the installation of media player 10 could not continue.
