Deleted files still show in Media Player and not all songs transfer

original title: Media Player not working not properly.

A couple of weeks ago, I deleted several music files, but that they always show in Media Player. If I try to play them it says file has been changed or moved. Also when I try to transfer an album for my mp3 a song or 2 will not transfer. It shows, but that does not sinc.

Any ideas on how I can fix this? I have Windows 7 Home Premium.

Thank you Vicki

Hi Rachel,

Thanks for your help.

I tried it & it didn't work but I was checking other messages on media players & I found this.

Uninstall the Media Player

Step 1

Uninstalling Windows Media Player:
1. go to start and in the search type "Turn Windows willing or not.
2. click on "Turn Windows features on or off".
3. browse the features of media (develop) and uncheck the brand in the face of Windows Media Player.
4 restart the computer

Step 2

Reinstall Windows Media Player:
1. go to start and in the search type "Turn Windows willing or not.
2. click on "Turn Windows features on or off".
3. browse the features of media (develop) and place a check mark in front of the Windows Media Player.
4 restart the computer.

I've tried it & it worked. Initially, there was no change so I've let it go & 10 min later that everything was back to normal. It must have reset the media player. I wish I could find this post once again to thank :)

  • Multimedia files deleted, but still appear in media player. Hundreds of them.

    Windows Media Player always shows hundreds of MP3 files that I deleted from my hard drive. Covers of albums and all. I can't remove them from the reader, but they are gone from my computer. I select Remove again, and nothing happens. If I try to play it, I learned the file has been deleted or moved. Duh. I first noticed a few months back when I deleted a file in Media Player, I had to do it twice. After the removal of the first, he came back and I would delete it again and it would be gone. I went to Windows Explorer and delete the whole directory.

    I even went to "Microsoft Support" and he asked to install an ActiveX control, I said yes and then I get an error "Internet Explorer has blocked this site" by making a dangerous ActiveX control. Large.

    Windows 7 with all latest updates on an i7 bought seven.

    Open WMP, then press the ALT on your keyboard.  In the menu that appears, choose Tools > advanced > restore of the media library.  This should solve the problem and allow him to read system files directly, rather than the display of old deleted files.

  • How to make Windows Media Player and Real Player STOP my each image stored in MS Paint - loading Vista

    More specifically, when I open Windows Media Player or Real Player to view the photos uploaded from my cameras, players are full of 2,000

    images, I stored in MS Paint.  I need these images in MS Paint for reference material for my work.  They are all the print screen shots pasted in MS Paint.

    What I want, it's for Real Player and Windows Media Player to be used only to store the photos from my camera.  I don't want these other 2,000 images in there, because they make it very difficult to manage all 2,000 of them when looking to find photos of the camera that are much more limited.

    So, basically, I don't want media players store these images of MS Paint.  And I hope that I do not need to delete one by one or in boots.  And I don't want to accidentally remove it from my computer.  I just keep them in the painting.     Please tell us how to proceed, if possible.

    Media Player is not all image acquisition to import videos from cameras.

    But let me clarify: Media Player also does not maintain a library index more (this is bad for performance).  When you browse through your photo library by clicking on the links on the left side of the media player, it's just browsing through files as if you open the window of your file and you click on the image on the left side of the library.  The two are different programs, but they both go through the same places as a folder view, so there is no worry about the index of the media player clog, because it is not a plus.

    Example:

    Media Player does not index more, it uses just the file system.  If you right click and select properties of the picture library, this is where you control the locations it reflects in its scope.  It is not a folder (nothing can be stored "in"a library".  The circled "3 locations" is another way to access the same.
