Title: WMP 11
Post by: dazie on June 26, 2007, 10:14:03 AM
OK- yesterday, after I was forced to upgrade to WMP 11, I could minimize it and it would show up on my taskbar, with all the buttons to make it work.

Today all it does is minimize like any other program- no buttons.

How do I change it back?

I don't know what you're talking about, but I felt bad nobody had responded so I am commenting in here just to show my support for your endeavors.

I assume she's talking about Windows Media Player, but I have no idea how to help her, so I didn't respond.  But now you made me feel like a big meany, so I am.

You are a big meany!  You think you're sooooo special just because you can access Chat at work!

I don't know the answer to your question and have been trying to do the same thing on mine.  I love that button feature on the minimized tabs.

Yeah, no clue here either.  Currently I'm trying to delete programs from my laptop and they don't want to delete.

Probably what makes me sooooo gosh durn special is the fact that I can access Chat at work!  But the reason why I think I'm sooooo special is that I'm super good at the hula hoop.

like that? open media player, right click on the taskbar, go to toolbars, then click Windows Media Player. Then click the minimize button in media player.

Clarification: Right click on the regular screen's taskbar while WMP is open, then select Windows Media Player, then minimize

I kept thinking it was right click on the media player's taskbar area.  Mine works now and is totally cool.
