Thread: K-Lite Codec Pack 5.2.0 Full/ Corporate/ Standard + Mega Codec Pack + Portable

K-Lite Codec Pack 5.2.0 Full/ Corporate/ Standard + Mega Codec Pack + Portable
The K-Lite Codec Pack has a couple of major advantages compared to other codec packs:
It it always up-to-date with the latest versions of the codecs.
It is very user-friendly and the installation is fully customizable, meaning that you can install only those components that you really want.
It has been very well tested, so that the package doesn't contain any conflicting codecs.
It is a very complete package, containing everything you need to play your movies.

There are three versions of the K-Lite Codec Pack: Basic, Standard and Full.
K-Lite Codec Pack Basic contains only the most essential things. It contains everything you need to be able to play the most popular and widespread formats. It is small enough to fit on a single floppy. Also great for including on your movie CDs.
K-Lite Codec Pack Standard contains everything you need to play all the commonly used formats. This package should be enough for the average user.
K-Lite Codec Pack Full contains even more codecs. It also has encoding support for the various formats. This package is for power users and people who do their own encodings.

Perhaps you should have included "Warning ... Install at your own risk"

Codec packs like these can really give some people big problems. For a start the people that release them do not own the software, but just assemble them into one easy download. Often the codecs are out of date or older free versions or just pirated versions picked up from P2P sites.

These packs if installed will change the settings on your computer, so overwriting newer versions of codecs with older versions. Just because the person that put these together can operate their computer without a problem does not mean the software will work on all computers.

Just beware of all or any codec packs.
