Install Windows Media Center on Windows 10
Microsoft discontinued Windows Media Center in Windows 10, but that hasn't stopped enthusiasts from maintaining the entertainment center and bringing it back to the latest operating system. Originally, the software maker introduced Windows Media Center in Windows XP, and an updated version was released with Windows Vista. Windows 7 included the software, but without any changes, and in Windows 8, Microsoft continued to offer Windows Media Center as an additional add-on, but it was again the same version that was originally released with Vista.
Windows 10 no longer includes Windows Media Center as the company focuses on Xbox One as the central entertainment center of the home. Although the media center hasn't been particularly popular, it still has a number of fans, and if you're one of them, users on the MDL forums have created a package to install Windows Media Center in the latest version of Windows 10, including the public and insider previews.
This project has been in the works for a few weeks now and Windows Blog Italia has published a guide that will help you install the entertainment software on your computer.
