When I close down Windows Media Player 10 it frequently still plays w/e it was playing. So I have to end the process using Task Manager. Hence when I come back to it all of my plug-ins for it have been disabled...this is really annoying.

I am persuming this is normal for WMP or is it just the MSN Music Plug-in or other plug-ins?

I noticed this too, you have to stop what's playing (esp. streams) before closing WMP. I doubt this has anything to do with plugins.

Edit: you're welcome

Thanks a lot for clearing this up Sunshine, I shall stop my files before I close WMP next time. ¬_¬

mine does this... kinda.... it only plays for like 5+ seconds after closing though so its not that big a problem...

I have a problem almost the same.  Whenever I close iTunes it opens itself back up like 5 seconds later, so everytime I want it to stop, i have to end the process.  Does anyone else have this problem?

same problem with wmp, lucky for me i use winamp

Yeah, same problem with iTunes, however, hasn't happened to me since v5

sometimes its with ram. When i had 64mb it would play for like ever until i ended the task. So check your ram or just stop it like the others said

I've had this problem sometimes, mainly with audio CDs, but not recently.

All your plugins are disabled as a rescue feature. When WMP crashes (or you kill the process), the plugins aren't loaded next time. You can just reenable them from Menu > Tools > Plugins > tick your plugins. They will stay enabled until WMP crashes or is killed again.

This problem only seems to happen to me after explorer and its process crash or end.
