Thankyou so much for posting this, I know this thread for posting is very old now, started 4 years ago omg!. Well I wanted to let you all know it worked for my crashing issues with Windows Live Photo Gallery, some reason it was freaking out everytime I loaded up the WLPG, only said shmedia.dll error. Thankyou again! Works fine again!

Thank you for this fix:

“4) To remove media preview, type and hit enter
regsvr32 /u shmedia.dll "

All the problems moving movie files was freaking me out.
Now everything works proper and windows runs faster (I think I never had use the preview option in explorer so i will not miss it) ;-)

uninstall all codec packs, download klite codec pack full, reboot and install that pack, with mpc, you won’t have any issues, unless you have other system issues going on. what ive used for years and i never encounter errors of any kind.

meant that idiot, sry wiz.

Just as an update for future refrence, stop shuting down shmedia.dll and thinking its golden, people actually like to see thumbnails.

The error report states on my computer that xvid.dll was the culprit. yes shmedia.dll solves the problem, but uninstalling the xvid codec should solve the problem without touching shmedia.dll. it worked on my computer, i hope it works on others too. its really stupid to call it quits with just turning off a windows feature that is not causing the problem straight.

*note* divx has also been known to cause this problem with some people. try uninstalling this and reinstalling a different version of divx. same for xvid, another version of it should work fine for you.

Fixed worked great,
now can you help me with stage 2?

AVIs crash every program I try to open them with.
Any suggestions?
I tried updating my codecs, but by now, this computer
with 5 years of crap on it probably has 500 of the same codec to do the same thing.

I had to use task manager to close folder.
I downloaded DivX521XP2K.exe and it solved the problem without having to regedit.

Many thanks for your advice.



you are a son of a B
