Default Cannot get media player 10 to open in anything but mini mode

Media player will only operate in mini mode. I cannot get back to default
setting or full screen.

What happens when you try to open it?

I see Windows Media Player in the taskbar, but nothing else. I cannot
maximize or restore or do anything else. I am writing this for my husband,
who did something to it when his laptop locked up on him. I think it is
partially deleted, but I cannot uninstall it completely or get it to operate
correctly by downloading media player again.

Thanks, just got back to the site today to see if there was a post - that did
it. I wish this information were more easily found in the player itself.
Thank you!
