Hi MichaelLandau1,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

Are you referring to Visualizations for Windows Media Player Legacy?

The Media Player pre-loaded on Windows 11 is an application of the UWP architecture, which is an application of a different system from Windows Media Player Legacy.

The functions supported by the two are not the same.

If you do not find Windows Media Player Legacy on your system, you may need to enable it via "Turn Windows features on or off".

  • As shown below.
