• Cannot delete files from Windows Media Player library.

  Original title: deleting files problem

  I deleted a large number of music of my WMP library & computer files, but they are still listed in WMP. I can't play any of them as they were deleted, and I get a message telling me so when I try! Why are they still displayed in the list and how do I get rid of them? I tried to restart, changing the target folder, etc., without change. I even tried to remove all of the library (but not the computer this time) and they do not always go!

  Hi Jamie,

  Welcome to Microsoft Community where you can find all the answers related to Windows.

  According to the description provided, looks like you are not able to completely remove the files in Windows Media Player.

  I have a couple of steps that should help you to solve this problem.

  You can try to clear the database of Windows Media Player and check if it clears the titles and generic icons.

  To do this, follow these steps:

  Method 1:

  1. exit Windows Media Player.

  2. click on Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player in the start search box and enter.

  3. Select all the 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.

  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, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the start search box and enter.

  3 select the folder Media Player, and then click delete on the file menu.

  4. restart Windows Media Player.

  Note Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.

  Keep us informed on the status of the issue. If you face problems more when working with Windows post on Microsoft Community.

  Hi zztopzztop,

  Instead of a new user account, you can move the public folder of music, and from there the two accounts are accessible and played.

  Check out the link:

  If you want to continue copying, then you can copy if the default location for the new user account.

  Sign in with the user account that you may have created. To ensure that this new user account has administrator privileges.

  a. open the Explorer, click on organize, and select folder and Search Options

  b. click the display and check the option Show hidden files and folders box and click OK to save the settings.

  Now navigate to your C:\Users\(Old Username folder) and copy all the files and folders in the folder C:\Users\(Old Username) in the C:\Users\(New Username folder).

  Hope this information is useful.

• Try to remove deleted files from the Media Player library

  There are video files in my Windows Media Player library that I deleted, but items still appear in my video library.  When I right click on the file and choose 'Remove', nothing happens.  The video files were originally in the folder my music and I deleted them using the Explorer.  However, they still appear in the Media Player library (even if they are not functional - because I have deleted!).  I followed what Umesh suggested GregRN, but that doesn't seem to work for me.  How can I get rid of deleted files appear in the Media Player library?   I use a HP Pavilion dv4 using Windows 7 (64-bit).

• Adding MKV files to Windows Media Player library

  How can I add MKV files in the 'Vidéo' section rather than in the section 'Other' library?

  Copy / paste the following text in Notepad, save it as WMP_MKV.reg , double-click this file to add it to the registry and restart WMP:

  Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
   
  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.mkv]
  "PerceivedType"="video".
   
  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Multimedia\WMPlayer\Extensions\.mkv]
  "PerceivedType"="video".
  'Permissions' = dword:0000000f
  "Runtime" = dword:00000007
   
  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\MLS\Extensions]
  "mkv"="video".

  After that, MKV files will be added to the video instead to other media (it may be necessary to add new files).

• Can I disable adding automatic file from Windows Media Player?

  OK, first OFF... it's very annoying!

  1. I don't want all of the files on my hard drive in my WMP library.
  2. everytime I open WMP it diverts resources and my computer and add files, I don't want in my list of the library and it does every time.
  3. I love the advanced tag editing feature, but I'm about to abandon this program if I can't it settle down and change his behavior without having to resort to hacking my own registry techno.

  Is there a simple way to disable the auto add file function so that I can add only files that I want to manually.
  If it isn't... I'm done.

  On my version of WMP, I can go to:
  Tools-> Options-> Library (tab)-> button "monitor records.
  Then a "Add to library" window opens with a list of the folders that are searched for multimedia files.  Just select each row and then click the ignore"" button.

  HTH,

• Cannot delete file in windows Media Player

  I can delete video files from Windows Media Player. I think that I deleted them before somehow but standard photos (balloon, balloons) always appear in video library for all deleted files and try right-click and delete is not remove them from the library. There is no error message when you try to remove them and when you try to play them you get Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file. I don't want to play the file I want to just delete it.

  You probably need to reset the library to get rid of the files in the library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

  -Restart the PC.
  -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service . If its status is started , double-click the service, and then click stop .
  -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
  -In this folder, rename the folder Media Player as Old Media Player . If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
  -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt.
