2 versions of Windows Media Player exist in x64 Vista. There is a 32bit version in% ProgramFiles (x86)% and a 64bit version in% ProgramFiles%. Vista Ultimate x64 uses the 32bit player as the default system. The installed components of this release include icons to allow you to change the system's default player between the 32bit and 64bit Windows Media Player (s).
One other aspect of Vista x64 Windows Media Player (s) needs to be mentioned. If you associate a particular filetype to open with WMP while the system default is set to use the 64bit player, that filetype will always open the 64bit player when DoubleClick. This occurs even if you change the system default back to using the 32bit player.
The Vista Codec x64 Components 1.7.5 Final is the only 32bit package to use in conjunction with this installation. You will experience reduced functionality using any other 32bit package.
You can expect ongoing support x64 as the rest of the world catches up to 64bit computing.
