Installing the last.fm plugin (tried 1.0.2.29 and also 1.0.2.26), you start getting this error after a restart. I'm on "Metro M" skin and the player (with the start button etc.) disappears completely, I cannot even find it or drag it around.
It's definitely the last.fm plugin causing this error.
Yes it is. Installing MM in non-portable mode in addition to portable mode fixes this.
You can de-install the non-portable version afterwards. It's probably some kind of registry thing.

If that file is present in a portable installation on a system that runs win 7 that does not also have a non-portable installation of MM then we get the error described above.
Has anyone been able to run this exact setup without the problem? I now know of 4 direct instances of this problem in my private circle, all 4 of these instances have used different win 7 installs, meaning they do not come from the same win 7 disk or .iso. I have seen no example where it actually did work.
It seems to me that the .dll file needs to be registered in Win 7 for it to work properly. Maybe 'registered' is not the correct word. Anyway what happens with the .dll file when one installs non-portable which does not happen when one installs portable?
After many years the above problem still exists for me. Has anyone managed to find a solution for this?
