Once you have download the file from Deviantart, navigate to C:\Windows\System32 folder and find wmploc.dll.

Take ownership of wmploc.dll.

Copy it to your desktop and save it as a backup copy.

As an additional safety measure, rename the original wmploc.dll in the system32 folder as wmploc.dll.old, so that it remains as an additional backup in your system32 folder.

Now copy the new downloaded wmploc.dll into the system32 folder.

Open Windows Media Player and see the difference!

I tried it. Worked like a charm.

Sould any problem arise, one can always run the System File  Checker.

    “Take ownership of wmploc.dll”

    I had trouble taking ownership of the .dll file.
    I was using the R. click> properties> security tab> edit I was allowed to keep the full control when I clicked “OK”.

    Is there a way you could suggest that would allow me to be able to add the .old tag and thus use the new .dll?

    Edit of above:

    I was allowed to keep the full control when I clicked “OK”. Should be, I was “not” allowed to keep the full control when I clicked “OK”.

    Use UWT to ‘Add take ownership’ option, easily to your right click context menu, easily.

    Click Yes to the prompts…

    I got it to work. It looks really good with a blue Win 7 theme.

    I had UWT v2.0 so I got the new version and took care of that too!
