"As it was, I DID uninstall my JPlay trial and re-installed JRMC but the same problem continued. My conclusion is that JRMC doesn't need help from JPlay to break."At this point I can think of two logical possibilities: JRiver has a problem with your system without regard to JPlay, or that the uninstall of JPlay was somehow incomplete. Unfortunately, if the installation of JPlay was in the far past there is probably no easy way to reliably diagnosis this situation. (If you had a system image or system restore point from prior to the original installation of JPlay then you would get a fair test.)
Of course, if you trust the JPlay uninstall process then you would be good to go, the problem is JRiver. However, given two software products that don't work together, there is no a priori way to know which one is buggy. I do recall software that would not uninstall, although the uninstaller reported success. This was some years ago, so I don't recall the specific make and model of software, but it was a fancy internet security package. I remain innately suspicious of various add on "optimizers" that mess with the operating system because of this experience.
