Thank you both for your donation and feedback.
Version check is fixed now.
I wonder how could I have forgotten it for such a long time... ;)

Yes, it is fixed now :D thanks
By the way, this guy was able to change the default midi device on Windows 8.1 too (I tested it, it works flawlessy!):

It looks like the typical Vista / 7 switcher tools, but it's not. It works on Windows 8, really!
The source is also inside the download. Maybe it helps you!

I took two snapshots of my Windows registry before and after running that tool; it changes only the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveMovie\devenum\{4EFE2452-168A-11D1-BC76-00C04FB9453B}\Default MidiOut Device\MidiOutId
and sets it to the ID of the default device.
This is exactly the same thing VirtualMIDISynth configurator does when user changes the selected device into Windows Media Player default device setting into MIDI Mapper tab.
Moreover, VirtualMIDISynth configurator also changes this other key (only on 64 bit systems):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveMovie\devenum 64-bit\{4EFE2452-168A-11D1-BC76-00C04FB9453B}\Default MidiOut Device\MidiOutId
so even 64bit players should work correctly (tested with Media Player Classic x64).
Thanks for your feedback ;)
