On Windows 11, the legacy media component available in the provided guidance is Windows Media Player Legacy.

To install media features on Windows 11:

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Go to Apps > Optional features.
  3. Select View features next to Add an optional feature.
  4. Find and select Media Feature Pack if the device is running a Windows 11 N edition.
  5. Restart the PC after installation to complete setup.

If the goal is specifically Windows Media Player Legacy, it is compatible with Windows 11 Pro and can be installed from Optional Features in Settings.

The Media Feature Pack restores media-related technologies and apps that are excluded from Windows 10/11 N editions, including items such as Windows Media Player Legacy, media codecs, and related playback features.
