Where are all the songs on Windows Media Player on my computer?

I'M TRANSFERRING ALL THE SONGS I HAVE COLLECTED ON WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER TO ANOTHER PROGRAM BUT CANNOT FIND THEIR FILE LOCATION. I TRIED C:/PROGRAMFILES/WINDOWSMEDIAPLAYER/BUT NO MUSIC NO FILES THERE. Help, please!

Look for the file extension. Probably the mp3. Personally, when I download the music I download it to a folder. I know where it is and just by clicking on the desired pieces open in WMP.

  • Location of the song lose Windows media player

    Every month or two, whenever I try to play a few songs, Windows Media Player will give me an error saying it can't find the file. I have not moved one of my songs and I know exactly which folder it is in and how to get there. The most annoying part is that there is only a 50% chance that it will still add the song to the library. Rarely, it will give me the option to find. I made the mistake to click once on 'remove these items from the library' and he has deleted nearly a quarter of my songs. I tried to rebuild the library by removing the AppData\Local\Microsoft\Media record player and it did not help.

    Hello

    As you tried to rebuild the library Windows Media Player (WMP) and still the problem persists, you can now try uninstalling and reinstalling WMP and see if that makes a difference.

    Steps to follow:

    a. click the Start button, select Control Panel, click programs and then click turn on turn Windows features on or off. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    b. click on media features, uncheck Windows media Player uninstall and click ok.
    c. restart the computer, follow the same procedure and control Windows media Player to install.

  • How to exclude folders while they are not the index by Windows Media Player 12, but are available in Media Center?

    Just upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista and am having a problem with Windows Media Player 12 and its indexing.  In WMP11, you could put all your pictures in your "My pictures" folder (so they appear in the Media Center) but then exclude it from indexing in WMP11, then it would not bog you try to index all things.

    This option has been removed in WMP12.  If you want images to appear in the Media Center, they must be included in your WMP12 library. (Even if Media Center does not use the WMP library to ALL display pictures - she designs per file)

    Because I have thousands of photos and videos, this is a major problem at any time an Extender is turned on, because for some reason when you start an Extender it forces a new scan of all your media.  It is in turn completely failed the system leaving the main centre of the media both all completely unnecessary extensions while CPU hits 100%.

    So I have my girlfriend trying to listen to music in the bedroom on the XBOX360 giving me eyes stink saying "This sucks." and my daughter in the TV room to complain than his scooby-doo show "keeps skipping and stopping."

  • Change the song in Windows Media Player

    How can I change the duration of a song?  The song is more than 4 minutes long and I need, may not be more than 2 minutes, 30 seconds.  I want to change the song while keeping the words.
    Is it possible that I can do this?

    Thank you for your quick response.  It is a "lip sync" in my school for girls.  Songs will be cut to the level of the mark 2 1 / 2 minute otherwise previously modified in this song leaves a lot of little words and music.
    Is it better or rather easier than the other?  I always open the song in WMP?

  • 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.

    I understand that this has been a matter of repetition and I made the suggestions listed and nothing works.

    I have a Dell Inspiron Laptop with Windows Vista Home. Any suggestions? What should I chahnge how I download and save music?

    Hey Taylor09,

    You may find that you are getting this message in Windows Media Player due to one of the following reasons.

    a. you try to play a file that is not supported by the player.

    b. you are trying to play a file that the player does not support, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

    Step 1:

    Confirm that you are trying to play a supported file type. The following article lists the types of files (formats) supported by Windows Media Player.

    Information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player

    Note that if you tried to play the file type is included in this table, the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.

    Step 2:

    Download the necessary codec to play the file.
