how to make windows media player the default

Thanks to anyone who can help with my predicament. Anyways, long story short, I want that button to open Spotify and ONLY Spotify. I uninstalled WMP and now when the button is pressed, Spotify opens as usual, but it seems that the button attempts to run 'shell32.dll' and opens a dialogue box because it does not know what application to open the dll with. It used to open up both Spotify AND Windows Media Player. However, on my keyboard there is a Media button that opens up the media player. In the Media Types dialog box, choose Make RealPlayer my Universal Media Player, then click OK. Under the Content category, click Media Types.

Open the desktop player, then click the logo in the upper left and choose Preferences. Play/Pause/Stop/Forward Track/Backward Track all work, because they simply change the track on any open media player. To make RealPlayer your universal media player after installation: 1. That question is this: How do you set Spotify as your default media player? By this, I mean specifically how do you get a media button on a keyboard to open up Spotify. Anyways, I have a question that I've been trying to find the answer to for a long time, and I figured that if no one here has the answer, it probably does not exist. If it would make more sense somewhere else, then I apologize. Right-click on the file type that you would always want to open in Windows Media Player, click Open with, click Choose default program, and then select Windows Media Player to set it as default for the selected file type. I'm not entirely certain that this thread belongs here, but it's my best guess.
