I cannot pin point when it happened. Possibly after I installed KDE along with Gnome. But One Click Install does not work on my machine. I have tried to add http://opensuse.org/Standards/One_Click_Install to my repositories since it isn’t there. But Yast keeps saying “Unable to create Repository… …Change the URL and try again?” I have googled this problem for days and turned up nothing.
I am running a duel boot system with Windows 7, and after installing SUSE, I had a heck of a time sorting out the boot loader. That said, I do not want to reinstall.

Well, http://opensuse.org/Standards/One_Click_Install is not
a repository nor a one click link.

And please clarify what you mean with “it doesn’t work”.
Which browser are you using? Where exactly do you click what “One Click Install” (post a link)?
What happens instead? (error message?)
And why are you posting this in “Multimedia”?
From the technical side, a “One click install” has absolutely nothing to do with Multimedia. Probably you tried one of the Multimedia Codecs One click installs and that didn’t work?
Update: I got impatient and reinstalled, this time with just KDE. The One Click Install worked until I did the first round of updates.
robin: that would explain why that does not work
wolfi: I figured out the problem while I was trying to watch a dvd with VLC, but the dvd had no sound or video. I saw the time ticking away and was able to select audio and video tracks through the menu that appears with a right-click. I have tried Firefox, Chrome, Chromium, and Konquerer. When I click on the One Click Install link at: opensuse-guide.org/codecs.php it doesn’t launch YaST, it just shows me a bunch of code in the browser.
caf: Thank you, that long string of code fixed my codec problems.
You must under stand that openSUSE only ships open source stuff (note the name) if you want/need proprietary stuff you need to add it yourself.

On click install only works with Ffirefox.
So the one click link you try is
http://opensuse-community.org/codecs-kde.ymp
In my case, with 13.1, I get a dialog to save the file or open with, by
default being yast 1-click install. So it works.

That’s not true.
It should work with Chromium too, openSUSE’s package contains a patch for that.
And it does work with Konqueror, but only with the older KHTML backend, not the (nowadays) default WebKit. (you can change that in View->View Mode)
Actually, AIUI this is a problem in WebKit (Chrome/Chromium’s engine is derived from WebKit too). It detects that this is an XML file and wants to show it inside the browser window, regardless of the mime settings or something like that.

This could be due to one of several reasons:
