O.P. Windows media player always running
When i look in processes, whenever i turn my computer on wmplayer is always running, but the media player doesnt show up on screen. So whenever i double click any of my music, it plays, but i cant go to next track, stop, pause etc. Why does it load on startup and not display the window?

I'm sure you probably done this, but I'll just make sure before digging into the registry. Have you done a complete un-install/re-install?
