• How to delete songs in Windows Media Player 11 duplicate?

  How to delete songs in Windows Media Player 11 duplicate

  Hello

  Method 1:
  I would recommend you to rebuild the database of Windows Media Player and see if the problem is resolved.
  
  Here's how:
  To resolve this problem, delete the Windows Media Player database. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. exit Windows Media Player.
  2. click on start, run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player, and then click OK.
  3. Select all the files in the folder and then click on Delete on the file menu.
  Note: You don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.
  4. restart Windows Media Player.
  Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.
  Method 2:
  If this does not resolve the problem, disable the Windows Media Player database cache files.
  
  To do this, follow these steps:
  1. exit Windows Media Player.
  2. click on start, run, type % LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft, and then click OK.
  3. Select the Media Player folder, and then click on Delete on the file menu.
  4. restart Windows Media Player.
  Method 3:
  When you move digital media files on your computer, the file name and file path information remain unchanged in your library. Then when you select a file to play to its new location, a new entry is created in your library if you select the option automatically added to your library when played. As a result, your library can quickly contain a large number of entries, duplicate or invalid.

  To prevent it be automatically added to your library of music files

  
  1. in Windows Media Player, on the Tools menu, click Options.

  2. on the Player tab, clear the files of music to add to the library when played check box.

  Now, when you play music on your computer or the Internet, the file will not be added automatically to your library.

  Method 4:

  In the case where the duplicates are not removed:

  There are also third-party applications to do the job. You can search your favorite search engine and download third-party software to remove the tracks in Windows Media Player 12 duplicate.
   

  DISCLAIMER

  Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

• How to play .asx files in Windows Media Player

  original title; Can I play a video file of .asx with WMP? or if not, how to play with this extension .asx files?

  Can I play a video file of .asx with WMP? or if not, how to play with this extension .asx files?

  When I try to play the file, WMP shows error then update says "video codec".

  How then can I get this update for the video codec?

  Thank you, Michael Phelps 907

  Hi Mike,.

  an .asx file is not a media file. It is a file that contains a pointer to a content online. So if you are unable to read a .asx file and are able to play other files using Windows Media Player so the best thing is to open the .asx, a Notepad file. When you open the .asx using Notepad, you will see a link that starts by http: and so on. Please copy this link and go to Windows Media Player. On the Windows Media Player window, press the Alt key on the keyboard and click file and Open url. Paste the link and check if Windows Media Player is able to open the link. If she opens the link this is a problem with the formatting of the .asx file and if it does not open the link then it is a problem with the server online of the .asx file. It could be that it is deleted from the server.

  Hope this information helps. Keep us informed on the status of the issue.

  You can drag and drop playlist in Notepad or any other text editor. See: http://www.wikihow.com/Save-a-Printable-List-of-Your-Songs-in-Windows-Media-Player
