I installed VLC and now any Windows Media files I listen to in Safari are played by VLC. How can I change the plug-in back to WMP?

[Targon]

control click or right click a file, select 'get info' in the 'Open with:' pop up menu select the app u want to be used to open the file type in this case winblowz media player, if it isnt in the list select 'other' from the bottom of the list, navigate your file system for the applications, check 'Always open with' then hit the 'Change all' button in the get info box.

for the icons to change to the new application u need to log out then back in again.

I tried that but it just defaults back to VLC. It seems Safari is setting the helper app.

and did you reboot/logout inbetween?

or try dragging them onto the WMP icon in the dock?

all i have to do is open a .wmv/.asf in WMP and that sets the file type. then i change them back to VLC, because WMP sucks.
