I just bought a download of an instructional video for a magic trick. The site recommends backing up the license, but the instructions they link to on Microsoft’s website to do this are for WMP 10. There doesn’t seem to be a similar page describing the process for WMP 11, does anyone know how to do this? I’d hate to have lost $20 if I ever have to reformat my system or something goes wrong…
If it is, it’s not similar enough for me to figure out. There are hardly ANY menus in WMP 11, much less the one I’m supposed to use to back up licenses…
Howitzer, suit yourself, I think learning the trick was worth the $16.95. link
Ah. Well that sucks… Just did a little more searching in the WMP help menu.

Those who created those tricks are probably dead for 120 years already. I’m pretty sure they won’t mind. Most ‘new’ tricks are just variations of centuries old tricks. Its open source so to speak
I almost paid for the invisible deck trick on elisionist (or was it penguin magic?) (the best card trick ever in my opinion) and luckily I found it on wikipedia a few seconds before I wanted to buy it.
