Ok so some people such as myself dont like the wmp12 in its current state. So I decided to downgrade to WMP11. I am sharing my process here with u all. For me its working fine ![(Y)]()
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
::UPDATE::
WMP12 has been mutated to support the toolbar. So if u want only the toolbar then this technique is obsolete now. Go here for WMP12 with taskband: http://www.winmatrix...toolbar-for-w7/
