So yesterday I was doing some tutorials from Seven Forums and for some reason I ended up in the Windows Media Center I think it was over a icon that can be added to Windows Media Center. Anyway I knew you could watch Netflix through WMC, so I went ahead with the idea of watching netflix through WMC and I wish I hadn't.
1. Add the Windows Media Center to Windows through Windows Features Type control appwiz.cpl,,2 in Run did that no netflix app under Movies.
2. Started searching the forums only to fine people with the same problems this is what I did next and remember that it started all over a icon. WOW
Quote: " Hi Ron, Many thanks for your suggestion! I did as you specified and for the first time, I got the Media Center updates to run without any errors, so there is obviously some issue with the DNS servers. I went to dnsservers.org, noted the recommended dns servers' IP addresses and entered the values for my network adapter. This seems a bit ridiculous as the MC program should never be that fussy anyway. So, after getting the updates to run without any errors, I still had no netflix or internet tv. I then did the following:
1) Removed Media Center using Control Panel>Programs and Features>Turn Windows Features on or off.
2) Restart computer. Then go to C:\Program Data\Microsoft\ehome folder. Remove all files and folders in ehome
3) Go to Control Panel>Programs and Features>Turn Windows Features on or off and activate Media Center.
4) Run Media Center Update from DOS prompt as administrator as follows: C:\windows\ehome\mcupdate.exe -u. Media Center update icon does not appear.
5) Run Media Center Update from within Media Center using "Download Now" tab. Media Center update icon does not appear.
6) Restart computer. TV guide now shows up in Media Center, but not Netflix or Internet TV.
7) Close Media Center. Run Media Center update from DOS prompt as Administrator. Media Center update icon now appears as update runs.
8) Restart computer. Start Media Center. Netflix and Internet TV now appear
I believe I've done all of the above steps many times before with one exception. I first went to dnsserver.org and followed your suggestion exactly.
Once again, MANY THANKS FOR YOUR SUGGESTION! I CAN'T BELIEVE I FINALLY HAVE THIS FIXED!!"

3. The only thing I didn't do was the DNS aldo internet TV now appeared but still no Netflix app.
4. Click the link on page 6 from experts.windows.com to support.microsoft.com ran a few Commands again and the netflix app showed up under Movies to the left as it says in the tutorial from Microsoft, clearly there's a problem with the 64-bit versions of Windows 7.
5. Next I singed in only to fine more problems with it, netflix it self was under maintenance but it played fine using Firefox but not in Internet Explorer or Windows Media Center.
6. Made sure sliver light was installed and it was, so I though it could have something to do with the singing it and found this link the same error message I was receiving.
A) Authorization Failure
Our apologies - We could not authenticate your request.
7. After trying all the above witch took about a hour I never got netflix to play through Windows Media Center at the end. I said to my self that this part of the OS was going to be last, after all this shit to play a simple video from the internet and couldn't even do that. Plus when I fired it up today the damn netflix app was no here to be seen, what a fucking mess. You want to watch netflix just do it through the browser and forget about Windows Media Center fuck what a mess. I'll come back to this after I'm done with the other tutorials witch wont before awhile. Also I forgot about the first link that lead me to all this shit answers.microsoft.com again the above did fix the problem but the netflix app disappeared form Windows Media Center the following day.
What did I learn from this mess stop jumping all over the damn place and two switchs.
A) Start /wait "Means wait for the command to finish."
B) cd /d "Use the /D switch to change current drive in addition to changing current directory for a drive."
