when you have media player running as normal, right click on the media player tab on the task bar and click on close. this should then fully close media player until you open it next time

Thanks Chris,i have tried this but it carries on running until i end it in task manager,also i have noticed that adobe is also running,its driving me crazy
Adobe does normally keep a couple of bits running in task manager. for WMP does it make a difference if you select exit from the file menu to shut it rather than just clicking on the x
