Empty file in Windows Media Player
Hello
so, I'm having a problem with this file will not disappear in my Windows Media Player 11. It is empty, I can't do anything with it. I can't delete, play, rate it, edit the information - nothing.
There are no negative effects because it is there (at least), it's kind of annoying. any way to remove it? and how would he had there?
You probably need to reset the library to get rid of this file. To reset the library, follow the instructions for WMP 11 on XP at http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#medialibrary . Note the reset of the library will make you lose all the counts to play and possibly ratings too. Tim Baets

Unable to read the .avi files with Windows Media Player 11 on XP
Original title: Media player upgrade was worse than basic
I recently updated my Player multimedia media Player 11 and now it won't play movies from AVI file that I used to be able to play easily on the outdated version. Why is this?Hello
Do you have an error message when you try to play with Media Player AVI files?
When you try to play a file that uses a codec that is not installed on your computer, Windows Media Player attempts to download the codec from a Microsoft server. If the
Codec is available, the Windows Media Player installed on your computer, and then bed file. However, if the codec is not available on the server (for example, because)
the codec not created by Microsoft), Windows Media Player displays a message that your computer is missing a codec.In some cases, the file you want to play uses a codec that is not available or compatible with Windows Media Player. When this happens, you may be unable to use Windows Media Player to play this particular .avi file.
You can consult this article for a solution:

Play AIFF files in windows media player
Hello
I'm reading some AIFF files in windows media player. I get the error message "Windows media player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file."
As WMP supports AIFF files I guess it's a problem with the codec.
Is there a solution out there that I can play the files?
Cheers, Matt.
Where are the files? Are you sure that they are in the AIFF format?
You can try to install FFDShow . If this does not help, please open some of the files in GSpot , this program will signal the audio codec used in the file. Then, you can report this codec here.

Hi zztopzztop,
Instead of a new user account, you can move the public folder of music, and from there the two accounts are accessible and played.
Check out the link:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/sharing-files-with-the-public-folder
If you want to continue copying, then you can copy if the default location for the new user account.
Sign in with the user account that you may have created. To ensure that this new user account has administrator privileges.
a. open the Explorer, click on organize, and select folder and Search Options
b. click the display and check the option Show hidden files and folders box and click OK to save the settings.
Now navigate to your C:\Users\(Old Username folder) and copy all the files and folders in the folder C:\Users\(Old Username) in the C:\Users\(New Username folder).
Hope this information is useful.
