After reading that it does and doesn't on various websites, I tried it myself. The only thing that played was the audio - no video. However, I had already installed and uninstalled CCCP and k-lite in past, so this may have affected the results. Does Windows 7 natively support MKV?

No. Windows does not support the MKV video container format as the splitter required to split the parts in the .mkv file (video, audio, subtitles etc.) is not pre-installed. | ||||

MKV is a container for audio and video streams encoded with a certain codec. We would need to be looking at the actual codecs inside the mkv file you have to really know if its native. However, I highly doubt it will be native to Windows just because in the past I've always needed to install VLC to get anything practical to play. | |||
