How do I remove the protection from a movie file (which I had put before, but
can't remeber the code) so that I can see it again.
When I try to play the movie it requires a new licence (or a code or
something). Is there anything I can do to get past this protection. Is there
any way I remove the code or make a new license?
I would be very grateful if you could help. I thank you very much for your
time and assistance.

Go to Google and type in "stealing movies"!

"... can't remember the code"
" ... new license, code, or something"
Yeah, that it isn't obvious that YOU never were the one that protected
the movie. If you don't have the license, are unwilling to get it, and
are unwilling to pay for it, then you don't get to see the movie.

Read the help already included in Windows Media Player. For the
"Acquire licenses automatically for protected content" option, the help
says:

The Player can automatically acquire a license when a file requires one.
Acquiring licenses automatically can provide a more seamless playback
experience for protected files, because the Player obtains the license
without prompting you.

Some protected content requires a license to play it. To acquire
licenses for content (other than content from CDs that you rip to your
computer), you may be required to visit the content provider's Web site.
Once a license is acquired, it is stored on your computer.

You cannot play protected content if you do not have the license. In
some cases, you may be required to pay for the license. In other cases,
you may be required to complete a form before the content provider will
issue the license to you.
