Keep your eyes open for it!

Do you think there will be any changes in it from what we've seen in Vista, I think not

Check on Flexbeta, somewhere there (official WMP11 thread I think) is the answer

[Barty]

make sure u restart after u extract! rebooting is usually the answer

I did restart. Found out the problem was that I did a custom install without Urge. Urge is important apparently. But it works now, looks nice! B)
