K-Lite Codec Pack

Post by RonH »

I recently installed VLC Media Player.
It seems that I have a lot of entries in the registry (CCleaner) about the K-Lite pack so I searched via start and the following result shows:
K-Lite Codec Pack.JPG
Reg.JPG
Just a few of the registry entries

Is this an issue I should deal with or simply uninstall/reinstall the pack.
I note that VLC info states: Plays most codecs with no codec packs needed. But I have other programmes that maybe :scratch: need this K-lite pack such as Cyberlink Power Director, Lightworks and Audacity.

When you installed VLC player, you probably made it the default application for several file types, overruling the previous association with Media Player Classic. CCleaner simply notes this. There is nothing to worry about, you don't need to uninstall and reinstall K-Lite Codec Pack and/or Media Player Classic.
You can let CCleaner fix the issues.
Best wishes,
Hans
