BS Player causing Vista to lose standards

[derguru]

Hello everyone,
i hope someone could repeat this, or even better, give me a solution for it.

Everytime i open the preferences, Vista drops my standards. In my case its Firefox and Thunderbird, that are reset to IE and OE (now called Windows Mail). Even files associated with BSPlayer (.m4v in my case) are disassociated with BSPlayer after opening preferences again. I assume there are more things that are reset, which i dont recognize, because they dont bother me. But this is annoying enough. At least i do know now, what causes this, it was even more annoying, when i still didn't know what the cause was.

I'm using version 2.24 but the problem was present in every previous version i used too. Vista Business. The Problem is present on 2 separate Computers, which only share Vista Business (Laptop Acer Travelmate 660 and Desktop PC with Logitech Keyboard & Mouse, ASUS P35KC Board, HIS Ati Radeon X2600)

Thanks for looking in to it
Andi

UAC it's turned off ?

[derguru]

UAC is active in auto grant priviledges.
Changed the Security Policy, but didnt deactivate UAC completely.

I did only this, to get rid of the popup.

To disable Admin Approval Mode
	
1. Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, click Run, type secpol.msc in the Open box, and then click OK.
2. If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue..
3. From the Local Security Settings console tree, double-click Local Policies, and then double-click Security Options.
4. Scroll down and double-click User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode.
5. Select the Disabled option, and then click OK.
6. Close the Local Security Settings window.

You must disable UAC to gain FULL control over the OS. So the application you install can take over the rights they ask to work normally.

Did it like described here per msconfig http://www.petri.co.il/disable_uac_in_windows_vista.htm
but still the same.
So it wasnt that.
