WMP played cd's before, but no won't play any. This started with version 9,
I've tried upgrading to version 10, the problem continues. It lists track
numbers but gives the message "The selected file is in a scheme not
recognized by WMP, but may be able to play. Because the extension is unknown
you should be sure the file comes form a trustworthy source". Eventually I
get error code COOD1197. Files are cda format and I can open them using
another program. Nothing has changed except updating to version 10 after the
problem began.

CDA files by themselves aren't valid files. What happens when you go to
WMP's Rip menu and try to play the CD there?

Basically the same the same thing with a slightly different message but the
same error code. When this started I couldn't play mp3 files either. I have
managed to restored that.

How did you fix MP3s?
What's the value for "RunTime" under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Multimedia\W MPlayer\Extensions\.cda ?

Runtime value is at 0x00000009 (9)
To be honest, I don't remember what I did for the MP3s. That was weeks ago
before vacation and trying to figure this part out. I appreciate your help.
