Hi
I hope you will forgive me if I`m on the wrong group for this.
I have just read some articles on the web by Marc Liron about codecs and the
dangers of installing bundles which I must admit I have done. I have done a
scan with "Sherlock" and have located what I think are all the codecs on my
system.
The question I have is:-
Is it safe to delete these codecs (in C:Windows/System32) and to start again
letting Mediaplayer 11 (which I have just downloaded) find what it needs?
Would be grateful for any guidance.
TIA
Rafair

Can anyone tell me what "codec" stands for and what it/they do?
