On Win XP with SP2 plus the MM-official WMF11 (http://tinyurl.com/p4pj3s):
1 Copy settings from an old machine to this, including Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM\
2 In MM, play WINDOWS\system32\oobe\images\title.wma
Expected: track plays (especially since it plays in Windows Media Player)
Observed: 0.5sec delay, track text in Now Playing goes grey, track does not play, and no further tracks inc. .MP3 will play until exit and relaunch.
And, upon exit, an MM process is left running.
Workaround: delete Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM\, at possible cost! On next launch of MM, a DRM\ is created.
Note: here's a comparsion of the original bad and created good DRM\s filesets
Both files set are available if needed.
Suggested remedy: fix program behaviour, else file a KB article with workaround.
