How can I play and open WLMP project file on Surface Pro 3

Want to play and open WLMP project file on Surface Pro 3? Now read this article which will help you find a way out to convert WLMP to Surface playable format.


Why won't a .wlmp file play on Surface?

Someone shot a video and burned it to a DVD in the .wlmp format. Why can't I view this DVD on my Surface 2? Then is it possible to play wlmp on the upcoming Surface Pro 3? What player do I need to download to play a .wlmp file? Do I have to convert this file type to something else? If so, to what & how do I do that?

Best answer:

WLMP is not a movie file. It's the Project file which is only useful for re-editing in Live Movie Maker. And it cannot be played outside of Live Movie Maker. For sharing and playing in Windows Media Player, you should save the file as a movie in the WMV format at first.

In fact, it’s dead easy following the detailed guide below to solve all the headache and time-consuming issues.
