Album of corrupted in Windows Media Player

Hello

I have a corrupt album which I can't delete from WMP. I removed from 'My music' in the Documents.

When I try to play one of the tracks, a red cross put some focus tracks every time and a box arrives with "WMP encountered a problem when reading this file".

I thought that I try and remove WMP from the computer and then reinstall it, but it seems that I can't do this.

When I burn CD, they will not play on anything else, even if I have the box "Copy protect music" unchecked in "Rip CD" in Options.

Any advice would be welcome.

Thank you

1]. close WMP 12.

[2] start > in start search box type: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player and click the Enter key.

[3] select all files in the folder and then click on Delete on the file menu.
[You don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder].

[4] start > in start search box type:%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft > ok

[5] locate Media Player folder and delete it.

[6] restart WMP12.

  • Content of albums and libraries in Windows Media Player is removed

    Original title: WMP 11 Trashes my Playlists

    How can I keep WMP 11 to screw up my playlists?

    Several times I had to re-create all my playlist. After they are created, they work for a while.
    Then all to blow/unexpectedly when I open WMP 11 (on w/SP3 XP Pro installed) some of my albums disappeared and registration of the library is ransacked everything (songs missing, missing data, mysterious created albums).

    Is it one that once I re-created all my playlists that I can save the file somewhere so when WMP 11 trashes them later, I can just remove the information in WMP 11 and copy the file (s) back to basics to avoid re-creating all my playlists over and over?

    Thank you

    Hi Paul,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft community!

    The album and lists the library in Windows Media Player are removed.

    The problem may occur if the library database is corrupted.

    You did changes to the computer before the show?

    To overcome the problems which would pose if library database is corrupted, I suggest you follow the mentioned steps:

    Method 1:

    See the site:

    You cannot view, add, or delete items in the library of Windows Media Player 11

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/925718

    Method 2:

    See the site:

    Solve the problems of Windows Media Player video and other media or library

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/windows_media_player_diagnostic/

    If you want to reuse the library list and the album, and then copy the contents of the %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player in a different folder, and whenever you want to reuse, just copy in the original folder.

    I hope this helps. If the problem persists, or if you have problems of Windows in the future, let us know and we would be happy to help you.

  • Cannot add album art in the windows media player 11

    I used to put album art on mp3 manually files with advanced tag editor and I had no problem, but all of a sudden (I won't change anything in the configuration) it stopped, not even a message... When I drag any image of the album (which is not playing), it always creates the folder.jpg and albumartsmall.jpg files but it shows thumbnails of coverage associated with each file, and when I go again to tag editor advanced is as I din't put the lid in it, so it shows the coverage only for the information of the album but not for every song of it and I'd like to see the covers in the solution once again Explorer. I don't have the media player connected to the internet, but this is not the problem... Any suggestions?

  • "Find Album Info" script in Windows Media Player 12 error

    Hi, a problem with WMP 12. The "Find Album Info" function does not work. All goes well until you click Finish to confirm that you have found the information from the album right when the window comes up saying there is a Script error. Then I can only exit by pressing on cancel without updating music files. This has only started happening recently. I tried unsuccessfully to restore music library. Can anyone help?

    Thanks for the answers and information. I found a solution by chance more than anything else. Had tried library of reconstruction, but did not work.

    When the "Find Album Info" window is open it is script in the upper left corner:
    ISP. Music.metaservices.Microsoft.com

    If you point it cursor on that he "Refresh" appears, click the script and it refreshes the window just like clicking Refresh on I.E. This treatment cures the problem, if it doesn't first discount a few time a couple of times and it does not work. In addition, so far, has been recurring problem.

    I hope it works for you Widgeon3.

    How can I fix my Media Player as it says I can't play some files as it is corrupt, I'm not very computer im still learning.i tried the troobleshooter but it is not solved the problem.

    Hello

    1. what operating system do you use?

    Method1: I suggest you run the troubleshooter to library and check if that helps.

    Open the troubleshooter in the Windows Media Player library

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-Windows-Media-Player-library-Troubleshooter

    Method2: It would be possible that the files in the directory that stores Media Player may contain corrupted data. Go to the following directory and delete all the files in the folder. Test if the problem recurs.

    %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Media Player

    Note: Please save the contents of the directory first.

    Method 3: Reinstall Windows Media Player

     

    As a last resort, try to uninstall and reinstall Windows Media Player.

    This version fixes most of the problems of corruption of Windows Media Player.

    Note that uninstalling Windows Media Player 12 also disables Windows Media Center because WMC uses WMP12 to its operation.

  • Why my windows media player 11 has deleted all albums?

    Open media player has chosen an album hit game and each album deleted

    The Windows Media Player library does not contain the files themselves, only shortcuts to the. If you remove the actual file, it will get removed from the library.

    About your mp3 player, if you have it set to sync automatically, and the files are no longer on your computer, they will be removed by the player.

  • Sort Albums by year (Windows Media Player 11).

    Here's the question.

    I want to sort my music by artist and then by album release date (year). This can be accomplished by changing my rip directories, but there is no sorting option for this view in Windows Media Player 11.

    I wish that all the photos to sort through this way.
    Not in this way.

    Using the view 'Artist' will allow me to show all records artist separately, but once an artist is selected, all the pictures are sorted by alphabetical album title by default.

    Sort by 'File' is a difficulty, however, that one album can be played at a time.

    Ideally, a list of all the songs by artist, then album release date, then the album track number would be the most preferred look one and reading method. The ability to view the art of the cover of the album somewhere on the left side of the screen would be considered a bonus.

    This issue will never be treated? Is there a fix Windows Media 12?

    Only solution that I can think of is to change the album TAG. Example: "Album name" for "Album name (2000)", but is not preferred because 1, it is extra and incorrect information and 2, can cause database issues later on the road.

    Thank you. Please address or difficulty! I enjoy new Windows Media player and eager to pass that my primary music player.

    Figured it out myself!

    It is possible to sort the albums of the artist in order of launch date in Windows Media Player 11.

    Right click on the columns to sort near the top of the screen.

    Select "choose columns...". »

    At the bottom of the pop up option button, click the checkbox "include release date in default sort order."

    Which brings us to our next problem!

    Now, the albums are sorted from the newest to the oldest, as opposed to the desired direction chronologically from oldest to newest.

    You can click on the column heading 'Album' to use, but Windows Media Player 11 does not this preference of sort memory.

    Is there or is there a fix for this?

    Edit:

    Found my answer for that as well:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/FAQ/library.mspx#q1_20

    It does not seem to WMP11 do not forget your sorting preferences was done intentionally.

    This concludes my questions and honestly, looks like a poor choice that I would like to see fixed.

    Hope this helps someone else in the future.
