    b. double-click on CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives, click on the DVD drive that you want, and then click Properties.
    c. on the DVD region tab, make the desired changes.

    Note: To configure your DVD drive to play discs from other regions, select a geographic area from the list of regions. As a general rule, you must select the region in which you reside. It is not often necessary to change the setting again.

    Important: The region can change only a limited number of times. When changes remaining equals 1, and you select a new region, an alert is displayed to warn you that after this, you only will be able to play DVDs from that region. Be aware that you will not be able to change the region setting for some DVD hardware and software decoders.

    Step 2: If the problem persists, run the Windows Media Player DVD Troubleshoot utility and check the result.

    Hello
    Look at the packaging of your DVD. DVD region is noted on the back of the housing. It comes to the region, for that you need to change your DVD drive. To do that follow these steps:
    a. click 'Start', followed by 'Computer' or 'My computer', then right click on the DVD icon and select "Properties".
    b. choose 'Material' and select "DVD région" tab click on the region that you want to change your computer DVD drive to, then select 'OK '.
    c. Insert the DVD in your DVD drive and open Windows Media Player. The computer can now play your foreign DVD movie.

    Your DVD player can change regions only five times. The fifth change becomes your permanent DVD region.

    Hope this helps!

    Hello

    What operating system is installed on the computer?

    You can delete the database that could have damaged.
    To do this, follow these steps:

    Note: I suggest to save the songs and try the following steps.

    Step 1:

    a. exit Windows Media Player.

    b. Click Start, run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player and then click OK.

    c. Select all files in the folder, and then click delete on the file menu.

    Note you don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.

    d. restart Windows Media Player.

    Note Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.

     

    Step 2

     If this does not resolve the problem, disable the Windows Media Player database cache files. To do this, follow these steps:

    a. exit Windows Media Player.

    b. Click Start, click Run, type % LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft and then click OK.

    c. Select the folder Media Playerand then click delete on the file menu.

    d. restart Windows Media Player.

  • How can I copy albums of Windows Media Player on my computer?

    1. How can I copy and record albums in my Windows Media Player library on my computer?

    Do you mean pull them up in your computer?  or do you mean copy them to media player, so you can play them elsewhere?

    If you want to say, put a CD, select the extract and select those you want to extract.
    If the latter, then go to your music folder and find the album you want.
