Play H.265/HEVC videos in Windows Media Player (Classic) without a third-party codec pack or media player. Tested using Microsoft.HEVCVideoExtension_2.0.60091.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe with WMP 12.0.20348.1311 on Windows Server 2022 21H2 and 12.0.22621.1105 on Windows 11 22H2.

Download

  1. Go to https://store.rg-adguard.net.
  2. Search for the HEVC Video Extensions from Device Manufacturer (Microsoft.HEVCVideoExtension) app by entering the following store URL into the search box and clicking the button.
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/hevc-video-extensions-from-device-manufacturer/9n4wgh0z6vhq
    
    • Do not use the normal HEVC Video Extensions app URL, because that can't play HEVC videos in Windows Media Player for some inscrutable reason.
  3. Download the AppxBundle file.
    • You may have to right click › Save Link As because the URL scheme is http, not https, if your browser is set to enforce HTTPS-only mode.
  • If it tries to save as a filename that's just a GUID, you may copy the correct .AppxBundle filename and save it as that instead.
