MC 12 Installation: What is Being Downloaded?
« on: February 21, 2007, 10:57:12 pm »
When I install MC12, something called 'Windows Media Format Redistribution' [package] is downloaded and installed.

What is that?  And what does it do? It appears to add some kind of service to XP...?

Thanks.

Correct.  We're chasing an install problem right now.  It can cause multiple downloads of Windows Media on some machines.

Ah... OK.  Thanks.

I'm a little bit leery of Microsoft in these days of WGA and WGA Notification.   ::)

But if it's OK w/ J River, that's cool w/ me...
