Windows Media Player

Officially Windows 7 will be launched with the next media player version 12.Till then no windows version or update will not contain windows media player version 12.But if you are a windows media player fan then you can download version 12 and run it on Windows Vista only.Its not available as a separate download but it had been extracted from Windows 7 builds and works on Vista.This does not work in XP but you are a geek u can modify it to run on xp.

You can download from here. Before installing this don't forget to creat restore point. So that if anything goes wrong u can access the previous setting like current version of Windows Media Player.
