Some people still use the Windows Media Player and set it as the default player, not realizing that the Movies & TV app is the new one that comes as default in Windows 10 and as the app that Microsoft is pushing for people to use now, while others want to continue using the Windows Media Player because they’re familiar with it for playing their music and video and don’t want to learn how to sync and do other things from a new video or music player. The Movies & TV app is a more modern video player application with better features that make it a more favorable option for most people to use over the older Windows Media Player. It has been replaced by the Movies & TV app for video files and the Groove Music app for music files.
