hi,

based on test, icon of asx file not changed when double-click asx file, windows media player launched. what’s result on side? called, vlc player or windows media player?

if vlc player called, please collect following information research.

on dc, open gpmc, right-click group policy result, choose group policy result wizard, follow wizard collect report of windows 7 system. when finish, right-click in right-panel, choose save report. if other community member analyze report, upload file windows live skydrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com/), , paste link here, if not, can send file tfwst@microsoft.com (with thread title or link in email).

and try guy’s suggestion collect group policy preferences debugging log.

thanks.
