You have somehow lost the default skin for WMP, so it can't launch. Not the image files, they're not lost, but the pointer file is most likely gone. Look in \Program Files\Windows Media Player for default.skn (though the Microsoft File Explorer of course won't show you the .skn extension). If it's gone, just create a new one. It's a plaintext file containing just this:
20#\Windows\wmp85default.skn
You can even use Pocket Word if you like. Choose Tools | Save Document As... then choose Plain Text. Find the file using a proper explorer (Resco, FtpView, TotalCommander, whatever you like) and change the .txt extension to .skn. Then move it to the folder I mentioned in \Program Files. That's it.
If that's not the problem, perhaps check Microsoft's PPC site for Windows Media Skin Chooser. That's been known to repair the problem you're having too.
