Windows Media Player 11

Change the Default Online Store

SUMMARY: Instead of purchasing multimedia from URGE, what if you want to use a different online store?
 
Thanks to a deal with MTV Networks, Windows Media Player 11 promotes the URGE store where users can purchase music for listening on their machine, certain compatible portable devices, and CDs. However, what if you want to purchase multimedia from other online stores?

To change Windows Media Player 11's default online store, either watch the below video or view the instructions afterwards.

 


1. From Windows Media Player 11, hover your mouse over the "Urge" button. A down-arrow will appear.

2. Click the down arrow and a menu will appear.

3. Click "Browse all Online Stores".

4. A menu will appear from within Windows Media Player 11 where you can choose your desired online store. Hovering your mouse over each store logo displays information about said store.

5. Click your desired store logo.

6. A dialog box will appear asking if you wish to change to the selected online store. Click "Yes".

7. The "URGE" button will be replaced with the button of your desired online store.

If you wish, click on the down-arrow again and select "Add current service to menu". This makes the online store easier to access in the future.
