Media Player, I moved all the music files from drive C to drive D, both at the Court, due to the car being filled C... How direct the player to find the new path?
I have a laptop HP with two drives. The C drive is intended to the BONE, with the D drive, intended to manage file storage. I didn't know that the music files were originally instructions in the C drive, which is now virtually full. I copied all the files of music, (both for drive D, but as a backup to external hard drive)... now, I need to know how to redirect the media player to be able to read the files from the disc... Please help me?
Open Media Player, click file on the Menu, click Open.
Using the folder display left side cover on your D drive, find your playlist or music file.
Click your playlist or music file, and then click Open.

The tool recommended FixIt reconfigured/updated to update my Windows Media Player and sent almost all my music files on drive "C" of their location in the multimedia player! How can I move the files BACK to the media player?

Original title: laptop won't read the music files stored on external hard drive
I have an old Compaq laptop Windows XP, so it was out of memory I transferred everything on a Portable Seagate (500 GB) hard drive and started to access it. It's worked well for over a year, but lately, began to stop playing my music files. Absolutely everything on the hard drive opens, however, images, files and folders, but when I go into Windows Media Player, it pops up with this error message:
Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you try to read, burn or sync an item that is in your library, the element can point to a file that has been moved, renamed, or deleted.I have not modified parameters or anything that moved. I used to be just able to restart the laptop, or disconnect and reconnect the hard drive and it works again, but now it or not will be not at all, or it will cut off half way through a song and then not to play anything more.I can't find any support for this problem because the phone reads that the hard drive is there, and everything else works. Only the music doesn't. I tried to play music on a connected USB and it works fine. I'm so confused!Hi lkm0293,Here are some articles that you might find useful: -

Lately I get the following message if poster every time that someone sends me an email with an attachment. I use to be able to display up to a few weeks before. the message is - Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you try to read, burn or sync an item that is in your library, the element can point to a file that has been moved, renamed, or deleted.
Does anyone have an idea on how I can display these attachments?
Thanks for your help.
Hi fredleon,
· What is the email client or webmail you are using?
· What is the attachment file extension?
· How do you open the attachment?
· Is it by double-clicking or you choose open with option.
a. save the attachment to the office,
b. right-click on the file and select open with the option to open the attachment according to their file extension.
Example: If the .docx file extension, then it is word document or .pdf, it's Adobe.
You can get the extension of a file by right clicking on the file and go to properties

Failed to retrieve CD - "Windows Media Player cannot find the file. ..."
original title: rip for Media Player problem.
My media player won't let me RIP cd in my library. When I try it gives me a box that says "Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you try to read, burn or sync an item that is in your library, the element can point to a file that has been moved, renamed, or deleted.

Hello
During the extraction process, the Media Player makes a copy of each song, stores it on your hard drive as a file Windows Media Audio (WMA) or MP3 compressed and then add it to your library. Check in the library, if the files are present.
