Q: I installed TCPMP on my PDA and now it’s the default MP3 player. I want Windows Media player to be the default player without uninstalling TCPMP. How do I do this?
A: Upon installation of TCPMP it does become the default MP3 player. Some users have reported that their MP3 ring tone stopped working because of that and they fixed the issue by uninstalling TCPMP. There is a workaround to make the two media players co-exist happily alongside each other while keeping Windows media as the default MP3 player. This is how to:
Start TCPMP, tap options > Settings. Tap Select Page at the bottom of the screen and select File Associations from the menu. Uncheck MPEG Audio Files box. This will make Windows Media the default for MP3s. This solution works for both Pocket PC and Smartphone.

Thank you for helping me, but it didn´t work out. WMP was already the default player for mp3, it simply could´n´t play them.
When opening a mp3 file directly...
-> Choose file in file manager
... an error occurred which said "The file couldn´t be played. Maybe the file is corrupted or the player doesn´t support the desired format" (original in german)
-> Error message
... and the player, of course, was quiet.
-> quiet WMP
The funny thing is/was that although the player didn´t play these files directly, it was able to play them from its media library.
Uninstalling TCPMP did not resolve the problem either.
Anyway, I decided to restore the manufacturers settings on my device, which meant to start allover again. But it was worth it. Now everything is fine.
Sorry that it did not work for you like it did for me.
hey Mbartels did you convert the MP3 into a different format or did activesync convert them when you transfered them?
