I was looking to download Windows Media Player.

Microsoft required me to sign in to a Microsoft Account to be able to download it/ After three 9 digit confirmation codes to my email Microsoft then, rather bizarrely, locked this account and insisted upon me giving them my phone number.

So, I look for other places to download it and find a version of Windows Media Player is an exe file signed by "LAM Proactive And Investments Ltd" Who are they, what have they got to do with media player?

Why could Microsoft not let me download this free software from them??
