default player,
Windows Explorer will automatically differentiate between the 2 media
players as depicted below.
The Settings Application is 100% UAC compliant.
Restricted access is enforced. (User Account
Control)
The Application allows each user to maintain individual codec settings while at
the same time seamlessly integrating any administrative commands directly
into the users account. New users accounts are detected upon opening the
Application and automatically inherit the Administrators settings.
Adding files to the Windows Media Player Playlist
On the Help TAB of the Settings Application is a button to allow you to choose Windows Media Player Filetype Associations. This buttons functionality is GLOBAL and is not restricted to the 32bit environment. Once you have used this button, you can Enqueue newly associated filetypes to the Windows Media Player Playlist as depicted below. It also sets up Media Center to utilize the associations for seamless playback in that player also. If for some reason this doesn't work for you, go back to the associations button, click No twice, consecutively, then select Yes. No reboot is required.
This
will also work for audio files such as FLAC, APE or musepack.
