SsjCosty Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 Hi. Whenever I select a game in my list that has music or if I click its "Play Music" icon I get the following error: How can I fix this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 http://codecguide.com/download_k-lite_codec_pack_standard.htm Download K-Lite and if it says it found any errors tell it Yes to fix them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SsjCosty Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 Ok, I installed it. It did say I had an error, and I clicked Yes to fix it. But after the installation finished, I tried the music in LaunchBox and I still got the error. I even restarted LaunchBox, but the error is still there...

SsjCosty Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 I found the solution. For anyone having this problem, here's what my issue was: It appears that the registry entry was referring to a DLL from Windows Media Player, that LaunchBox uses to play audio files. But I have Windows 10 N edition, which means no media player. So I had solved by installing this Windows update. Short description of Windows 10 N edition: Labeled "N" for Europe and "KN" for Korea, these editions include all the base features of the operating system but without Windows Media Player and related technologies pre-installed. For the Windows 10 editions, this includes Windows Media Player, Music, Video, Voice Recorder and Skype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Ah, that explains a lot then. Well thank you very much for sharing this with us. Yet another thing we get to add to the ever growing list of troubleshooting. :P At least this is one where we have a definitive answer. Edit: Of course after re-reading the error "Class not registered" should have been a huge flag to not give you the K-Lite solution, but at least now you're also completely updated with codecs.
