I have a problem with windows media player. All of the files I have purchased online will not play, it comes up with this error message "A Windows Media Digital Rights Management (DRM) component encountered a problem. If you are trying to use a file that you obtained from an online store, try going to the online store and getting the appropriate usage rights." I have tried this and still it won't work. My media library is quite large - some 2000 songs - so to do everyone individually would be nearly impossible. The last time this happened I upgraded to Media Player 11 and this cured the problem, but now I am back to square 1. Please help

start a system restore to roll back you computer to when it worked fine by doing so it should restore it to a working state but will not cause you to loose and files you have created so long as they are stored within MY documents area
