I have the newest upgrade Windows Media Player, but everytime I try to play a video in the avi or rar format, it will not play. What can I do so I can play these?

Rar is not a video format. It is for general compression purposes. Before you can use the files inside rar you need to uncompress them. For that use winrar. Avi is not a format to. Its just a container for diferrent video/audio formats. Wmp is able to open avi but it cannot understand many of the actual formats inside. To teach wmp how to do it use k-lite standard.

Thanks for the reply, but can you tell me how to uncompress the files in rar to view them, and also, how do I teach the wmp to play videos in avi? I am not very good at technical parts of the WMP, that’s why I am asking for your help. What is k-lite standard? Please let me know as soon as you can..........thanks!

klite standard is just a codec pack pack if u do a google search u will find it
and to uncompress the rar files just use a prog called winrar
