Default Windows Media Center?

Every time I exit my game, a Windows media center window pops up with information/videos about how to watch T.V. on my computer. I don't know what windows media center is, and the only time I ever see it is as soon as I exit the game lol. Does anyone else experience this, or know how to fix it? It doesn't impact the game in any way but its really annoying!! I am currently using Windows 7.

If you don't opt to use Media Center, which you don't appear to, then you can disable it by this method:

Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows features on or off -> Media Features -> Windows Media Center (uncheck this box) -> OK

This should stop Media Center from bothering you. There's probably a simpler method but this ought to work anyway.

Edit: Yeah, there's an easier method. :|
