-and-

Windows Media Administrator Failed to create/update station with station manager.

This error might not happen unless you have deleted all the programs and stations and then try to create another station using the QuickStart wizard.



CAUSE
When naming a new project, keep in mind that the name of the project is case-sensitive.



WORKAROUND
To avoid this problem, when naming a new project, do not use a name that is the same (including case) as an existing project.
