  • Windows Media Player does not detect files in the music folder

    Original title: why Windows Media Player NOT showing my music?

    So I recently got myself a new laptop, with Windows 7 Home Premium on it.

    I copied my music to my desktop PC (also Windows 7) folder to the new laptop.

    All the files are there in my user folder music, however, Windows Media Player absolutely refuse to recognize their existence and will NOT add them to your own library. If I navigate to the folder of the album, select a track or multiple tracks and use the context menu to perform them, which works without problem - WMP will play files.

    I checked that the right folder belongs to the library.

    The photos that I copied in the same way everywhere appear correctly in the 'Images' of WMP library.

    After searching on the internet for answers, I came across three very common solutions either on their own or a combination of seems to work for most people:

    (1) removing all THE folders in the music library, then add the. This has no effect.

    (2) will "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Media Player" and delete the entire contents of this folder, or the folder itself. Note that if stop/start no matter which drive Windows Media services also had no effect.

    (3) using the command line tool "attrib" to remove the attribute 'system' of all the files in the folder music.

    Anyone got any ideas that are NOT ALL OF THE above MENTIONED the ELEMENTS, which may be able to help here? Otherwise, I'll move to a slightly less fussy Media Player...

    In fact, as a result, that gave me an idea.

    I went to:
    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Libraries

    And delete the content of this (this will remove ALL your libraries!).

    Then, I used the option "restore default settings", which correctly restored by 4 default libraries. I then recreated both more personalized, I would like to have it.

    Having done this, WMP now seems add my music to his library as I type this...

    I would have you readers of third party temporarily Uninstall and check if persists it to the question.

    Step 2:

    Most likely you need codecs to play these files with Windows Media Player. I suggest looking up codec in the Internet that supports the file format, download and install them.

    I would be grateful yuour help solve the problem.

    Thank you

    Hello Paresh,

    The Pinnacle program is third party software that is causing the problem to occur. Pinnacle may be in conflict with your music files playing in Windows Media Player, that's why, I suggest you to contact pinnacle and check with them.

    Windows Media Player 12 is probably to use the codecs used by pinnacle, which may be the culprit.
