Hey Mr78052

a clean reinstall of vista normally wipes your hard drive clean of everything

you could look for a windows.old folder because we don't know exactly how you reinstalled vista

  • adding new files or remove the old Windows Media Player files. (Vista)

    Since June 2010, I was not able to add new files or remove the old Windows Media Player files.  I can click on a new file and play using WMP or add to a playlist that is currently playing, but it does not recognize that it was added after as I close the program and re-open it.  Or I can delete the files that no longer exist on my computer but WMP always has them as my files.  When I click on add new media, it recognizes the right amount of files I would be adding, says to add them and then nothing is there.

    Your media library has probably been corrupted. To reset, follow the instructions for WMP 11 Vista at http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#medialibrary . Note the reset of the library will make you lose all the counts to play and possibly ratings too. Tim Baets

  • transfer music downloaded to Windows Media Player

    I have Windows Media Player version 11.0.6002.18311 which I use to rip and burn music especially. When I download music, it usually goes in my folder of music on the hard disk and eventually finds his way in the WMP library. Sometimes I physically open it to give him a bit of a kick of thumb. But recently I downloaded an Album and tried to burn it with WMP, which can be fickle in the best of cases, and accidentally deleted in the process. After extraction and replacement of files in my music from the trash folder I can still play them on my computer through WMP, but I can't get back them in the library for some reason any. Can you please help.

    Hi, I'm not trying to be difficult, but in my version of WMC, there is no option advanced under Tools, which in itself is already quite difficult to find, and I couldn't locate a topic "Organize" or whatever it is on the management of libraries, sorry.

    Thank you

    Hey mookster62,

    I think you're talking about ripping in Windows Media Player, but your title says something else entirely. Please confirm on the same so that we can offer our best support.

    Upon your first request, it is not the best place to determine whether Windows Live Movie Maker works with iTunes. Forum Windows Live would be the best place.

    Coming to your question ripping, please follow the suggestions in the thread below:

    If all goes well, one of the suggestions provided it solves this problem.

    On your last concern, Windows Movie Maker doesn't not part of Windows 7. Thus, it must be Windows Live Movie Maker in your case. However, please find help on downloading YouTube videos from the link below.

    Run these two tests to check your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.  Launch auditor.  You don't need to run memtest again unless the auditor is not the cause, or you want to.

  • Duplicating music for Windows Media Player files

    original title: duplicates keep duplicate frustrating player / / / med.
    I REMOVE THEM AND THEY COME BACK WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER.

    Hi Ninaduvall,

    I suggest that you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too.

    To resolve this problem, delete the Windows Media Player database. To do this, follow these steps:

    a. close Windows Media Player.

    b. for Windows Vista:

    Click Start, click 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.

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

    exit Windows Media Player.

    b. click Start, click run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoftand then click OK.

    c. Select the Media Player folder, and then click delete on the file menu.

    d. restart Windows Media Player.

    Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.

  • Move the Windows Media Player files to another external hard drive

    The hard disk that contains the files from my Windows Media Player 10 is dying.  I need to move the data to a new hard drive that I bought, but have not yet connected to my PC.  Old and new external hard drives are plug-and-play.

    I have a lot of additional information to the library and want to be sure that I don't lose in the process.  However, I have not found anything in the documentation that tells me how to move my database from one hard disk to another.  Can anyone help?

    If music files are in MP3 or WMA format, so most of the information is also stored in the files themselves, so that these information will be retained when the files are moved. There are a few fields that are not stored in the files, such as play account, custom fields and possibly star ratings. In order to preserve these fields during the movement of the library, you can use the backup of the metadata tool.
