If you upgraded from an operating system that included the Window Media Center (Windows 7 home premium or ultimate, Window 8 or 8.1 with Media Center) you will automatically receive the Windows DVD Player through Windows Updates. If you did not upgrade from one of the previous versions you will have to pay $14.99 for Windows DVD Player. This version of the Windows DVD Player will not play Blu-Ray disks. Getting the Windows DVD Player app to get the entire FAQ on this version of Windows DVD Player. If you have previously installed a DVD / Blu-Ray player it will continue to work.
