Summary QtWebKit does not find WMP plugin when FF is not installed

Created attachment 62064 [details] A patch to fix this problem On a Windows PC without FF, install the MS WMP NPAPI plugin (http://port25.technet.com/pages/windows-media-player-firefox-plugin-download.aspx). Now open e.g. with Qt Demo Browser an html page with a WMP embed element (e.g. http://jsbin.com/unulu3): the WMP control is not instantiated! Analysis: the plugin (np-mswmp.dll) is installed in \PFiles\Plugins in case Firefox is not installed on the PC. QtWebKit should use the appropriate registry key for its search path: Find WMP plugin location in "SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Installer\\UserData\\<SID>\\Components\\623431047B6C08F4F8DCBDEEB40F8C32".
