Audio and Video Codec list and removal
If you've ever had issues with a codec and needed to remove it so that you
could reinstall it to make it work again you'll want to know where you can
find your codec list. In this same place you can usually change settings for
the codec and it even has some limited troubleshooting capabilities.
Start --> Settings --> Control Panel --> Sounds and Audio Devices will bring
you to this first image:
Here you can see both Audio and Video codecs along with some other things. In
this case I'm selecting video codecs and hitting properties then selecting the
properties tab:
There's all of the codecs that I have installed. I can remove any that I
don't want anymore by selecting the codec and hitting remove. By hitting
properties I can usually get to additional codec settings if they're supported.
