Anybody know how to make this Yamm installer run on Win7? If RegisterMceApp would work....Which file do we register? Forget it..... YAMM is included with MMC (Ceton's My Media Center) SOLVED...Try multiple MMC versions until you find one that works for your O/S.
Hello everyone! I gave up trying to get WMC to work in my regular PC with all the updates and stuff and I bought a Mini PC (Beelink S1) to use it as a dedicated Media Center PC. This one comes with Windows 10 1703 preinstalled but I think I must downgrade it to 1511 in order to use Xbox extenders and DRM. But then it would nag me to update, right? Is there any way of disabling these updates? Or do you recommend maybe to use another version? I already saw some info about LTSB, but I think it means I would lose my activation... and I don't like that is a crippled version of Windows with no store and software. Then again, I could install Win 8.1 and be completely legal and worry free, but that would mean paying for a new Windows version. What do you recommend?
OK, I'll do that... ;-) But, just to be sure, do you confirm that the best version to use is 1511? With the most stuff working?
Hey Superor, see my post on how to use LTSB and store and activation. Version is 1607, Build is 14393.2068. If anything you want from the store needs a higher version number, then you are stuck. https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...ible-alternatives.61061/page-414#post-1365460
Pro/Home 1511 Is unsupported since October 2017 (enterprise/education has additional six months of support). 1507 (LTSB 2015) will be supported until 2025.
Yes, but it is illegal/needs KMS tool… ;-) I don’t like the idea… Nevertheless, my question was especially about Media Center. Which version of Windows works best with Media Center, regardless of updates and support by MIcrosoft.
I can't see how you can be comfortable in using a sw like WMC "cracked" to run on unsupported versions, but feel uncomfortable to use a KMS activated windows I suggest you to use win 7. It works just perfectly, likely you have a license for it, and WMC won't get killed by any update.
I just tried to install WMC on windows 10 (32 bit) and it does not detect my tuners. I am using HD Homerun Prime. Anyone have any advise. Also, the digital cable advise is not in WMC. Turner are found on another computer (Windows 7). I did install HD Homerun software. Thanks,
If DCA is not in Extra's Library, or Extra's.....Download it from my Signature and install it in windows. Then go back to WMC's Extras or Extra's Library, DCA should be there now. BTW, type WINVER into Cortana....what version and build are you using?
Been trying to re-setup my system on 2015 ltsb but am having issues with WMC finding my HDHR Prime during setup. I have run the DCA and installed playready. The setup finds the tuners on my HDHR Dual fine but doesn't show the Prime tuners. Used the 8/26/2015 silicondust software to install and my HDHR View app runs fine using the Prime tuners. Using version 8.8.1 Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If anyone else is having trouble with running WMC full screen with win10 1709 and have just decided to live with it by using a large window to yield an almost full screen experience I've updated an old program launcher of mine to automatically launch eshell.exe and then move it to the desired coordinates which means (a) no more fiddling each time you launch WMC to position it just so with the title bar as far off the screen as possible and side edges off the screen and (b) you can actually push the title bar right off the screen and get something that's effectively full screen with the sole exception that the mouse cursor doesn't disappear, tough bikkies. If anyone else is interested I'll put a bit more work into it and polish it up a bit.
Solved my problem by doing clean install of Win10 ltsb 2015. Then disabled updates before installing everything.
I was just about to respond to your earlier post and tell you that you probably got zapped by a cumulative update of some sort. Glad you got it worked out.
If there is someone that can answer my simple question I would’ve appreciated it. As for the different opinions, I have to say that getting a KMS “activated” version means that if in some way a signal gets through to Microsoft about my PC, it would seem as having a completely pirated Windows (that means I have not payed nothing for it), but having a modified normal version running it would register as a payed version. For me, it is different. Legally, it might be the same, but anyway, this is my PC, and this is my view. Aside that, which was the best Windows 10 normal version regarding WMC compatibility? That is the question I would like for someone to answer. Thanks. Ah, and I don’t have a Windows 7 license, it’s a new PC.
