New issue 22077 by [email protected]: WMP's NPAPI plugin installer fails if Firefox isn't installed http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=22077 I found that if Firefox is not installed, then the Windows Media Player Firefox plugin installer won't install the np-mswmp.dll. This is a problem for Chrome and Safari users who don't have Firefox installed. This document describes the standard way that NPAPI plugins register themself in case they're installed before the browser: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Plugins/The_First_Install_Problem Ideally, the installer would always copy the dll to a specific location (Program Files\Windows Media Player) and then just set the MozillaPlugins so that browsers can find it. I've sent emails to WMP developers, waiting to hear back. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
