Can't my downloaded music to open in Windows Media Player and Make Playlists in Windows Media Player
Up to what a few days ago, I could download music (mp3)... put them in files... so being able to move to Windows Media Player and create playlists. The songs are all had small blue and white MP3 icon. It was great. Didn't matter if they come from youtube or has been downloaded sites and e-mail.
I had a virus and just had the computer repaired and recharged. Now all the mp3 files have the Red helmet icon and play on the music app. I really don't like this app and would like to change back to the old icon mp3. The computer has always had Windows 8 with the music app, but it never came in the image before. I know that Windows Media Player is not the best, but it worked great for what I had with my music. It seems that I can't do playlists on the media player more... He goes to the application of music and play on xbox music.
Please help me to recover from my years 50 era mp3. (I'm not a 'great' computer person, so I'd appreciate any help)
Thank you very much...
Paul
Hi Paul,.
The probable cause of this problem could be due to the 'Windows Media Player' is not defined as music player by default on your computer.
In Windows 8, Windows Media Player is more the default program to open files of music such as MP3 files. If you want to make sure Windows Media Player is the multimedia player by default as if it was in previous versions of Windows, please follow the methods in the links below.
