If you can't install VLC, then try Media Player Classic.

Try an older version of VLC until you find one that works.

I'd suggest the K-Lite Codec Pack, which comes with the Media Player Classic. It's much more reliable compared to VLC and the built-in Windows Media Player.

I used to use that many years ago. For me though, now I use either Kodi or VLC, but you are right that Media Player Classic is still great to use.

Try downloading it again from the official VLC page I linked to in an earlier reply. I've been using VLC for years on Windows 10 with no issues.

I agree. I've never had any issues with VLC for any version of Windows.

I m using VLC player in windows 10 for more than a year ago but I got a crash problem I reinstalled it and now working fine. Try to reinstall maybe it also works for you.

That is definitely worth a shot. Hopefully the OP will try it and reply back.
