Back in November 2021, Microsoft started rolling out the new redesigned Media Player player to Windows 11 preview users. Since then, Microsoft has been gradually updating it, adding new interesting and useful features such as audio CD ripping and more high-fidelity audio file formats. There are also features that video users will love, such as the recently added video folder navigation.
Groove Music has always been the default music playback app on Windows 10. However, with Microsoft now starting to replace Groove Music on Windows 10 with the new Media Player, it looks like that’s about to change.
Microsoft has already started rolling out the new Media Player player to users of the Windows 10 Release Preview channel.
Deskmodder reports that the new Media Player is now available in the Microsoft Store, which means all Windows 10 users will soon be able to use it.
Users may not get the new Media Player player immediately through the Windows 10 App Store at this time, as the app is still in full launch.
