  • How to stop windows media player from reading when I open it?

    I have windows vista. Why does windows media player start to play the first track in my list when it comes on? It didn't used to, but my system has been rebuilt, and now I can not find anywhere, no matter what help (is not always the case? Help files are never 'useful'). I didn't start playing a track just because I opened the windows media player!

    Media Player has no opportunity to do so.  Are you sure you're not clicking on a shortcut file that specifies to play?  If you are unsure if the shortcut file specifies a game action, here is how to test directly open it:

    (1) make sure that all programs are closed

    (2) press Windows + R to display the race

    (3) type wmplayer and press OK

    Media Player should open without playing anything.

  • 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.
