Who at Microsoft is responsible for WMP12?

WMP12 has a number of important issues of implementation.  WMP10 was more or less 'good', but WMP 11 and 12 have introduced significant deficiencies and mistakes.

If you use a piece of software like Mp3tag to sweep all the MP3s in 'My music' (where 'everything' is more than 50,000), he finished the task in about a minute, providing a search interface where you can sort & show all these data.  On the other hand, if one changes a single MP3 tag and tries to get WMP12 to update its views, the process takes minutes or more, crashes MP3 files and absurdly broken data does display or any.

If you rename an MP3 that was in the data of WMP12 library and then try to play it, WMP12 says that the file does not exist, but it removes the library.  It's a little strange, because there seems to be no real reason so he could hold onto data that cannot be exported or used otherwise.  But, if you can open the file renamed in WMP12 and it plays, WMP12 displays the data label in the file, but do not add it to the WMP12 library, even if the file is obviously in the right location to be part of the library.

If one has two records of collection in their library of 'Music' and move the files from one to the other, WMP12 becomes confused.  If we try to play the files, WMP12 says they went.  If we wait long enough, WMP12 will realize that the files are in a different location, but show two entries for each file, one that works and does not work.  A little later, WMP12 "will fix" this by making two entries point to the new location... so that duplicates of all these files in the library, that point to the same file if you ask WMP12 to open the location of the file.  And, somehow, if you delete all entries and wait (hours!) for WMP12 re - find files, the two inputs will return.

WMP9 and WMP10 used to be awesome, because they could manage large collections.  A few other MP3 players would actually bribe their database if you had more than 20,000 MP3s. But now, the bar is higher.  WMP12 must not only fail to corrupt its own databases - which he apparently can't - but it must be fast, pretty and functional.

WHY are there no view album covers under the gaze of the artist?  Not simply a view that has left and all tracks, but a nice view just the covers, as can be found in so many other interfaces now.

WHY in of WMP12 re - size each incoming album art image 200 x 200?  And why he sometimes tries to play games with an art file in the folder that contains the files instead of putting art in the MP3s themselves?

WHY WMP12 is simply not very good? Yes, he plays a large number of formats, and Yes, it handles video, music, TV, devices, and other things... But people do not need their video player and an MP3 player as long as they need for their MP3 player or video player to really work well for what it is supposed to do the same program.

WMP12 must be a great MP3 player.  It is not the case.  Who's going to fix?

    just has got rid of the virus and responsible for all the disks but given the wifi does not work

    Hello

    Check with the system manufacturer or the actual WiFi device manufacturer and ask in their forums (if any)
    for problems known.

    Actually, try updating your driver:

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
    manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
    updated drivers.

    I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
    are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

  • I got a phone call from a benny edwards who said Microsoft and had found problems with my computer.

    * Original title: defraud my computer

    I got a phone call from a benny edwards who said Microsoft had found problems with my computer and the pirates had gotten him. As I have had some problems recently with the computer, I thought it was authentic and fell for it? After a long telephone conversation, he forced me to accept that my Bullguard anti virus and my malware Remover is not enough to protect the computer and forced me to buy a program from Microsoft (this man of course) not microsoft. It supports the remote computer, and then forced me to give him my details, name, address, telephone number and age and of course the fool that I am, my credit card number, the penny dropped when he asked the Envoy of money via western union.  When I told her that I was closing the phone call, he told fort and wiped a number of things from my computer, the computer wasn't sure.  I ran my scanner (twice) bullguard, run my anti malware program, changed my password and order my credit card, is there something more I can do?

    To protect yourself, your information and your PC, follow these steps:

    • Change your computer password, change the password on your main email account and change the password for all accounts, including your Bank and credit.
    • Immediately scan your PC with the Microsoft Security Scanner to see if you have the tools malicious/phishing software installed on your PC.
    • As a third step, I recommend that you run the verification of Security Essentials on this page. The check will ensure that the security features in Windows are normally very active and running.
    • Personally, I have a clean Windows installation, because something could have been tampered with.

  • If I leave the IE8 on Windows XP Mode, but never use it, is there a way I can be hacked by him once Microsoft stops support for Windows XP?

    Original title: Windows XP in virtual mode

    I have Windows 7.1 with Windows XP in virtual mode so that I can use older products, not supported by 7.1.  In virtual XP mode, there is an Internet Explorer 8.  I understand that after Microsoft eliminates support for XP that can cause future security issues.  I run the latest version of Internet Explorer on my Windows 7.1.  If I leave the IE8 on the virtual XP mode but never use it, is there a way I can be hacked through it?  Should I remove the IE8 completely of the virtual Windows XP?

    If you never use IE (any version), it cannot be 'hacked '.

    If you wanted to be doubly secured, you can prevent accidental use by uninstalling...

    • Open the Control Panel - Add or remove programs
    • Remove IE8 (and IE7 if necessary) - click to highlight, then click on remove
    • Click Add/Remove Windows components
    • Uncheck the box Internet Explorer and click Next

    Stop using XP in April 2014.

    Although I know that some companies still using Windows 2000, so...

    You're not real specific-, but the basic answer to your question is to find a list of the updates through the catalogue and download/save to some media.  Integrate as much as possible in support of installation that you plan to use after the date of 'dead' of the then 13 year operating system and several.

    Drivers are not the responsibility of Microsoft unless it happens to be Microsoft hardware.  Go through the manufacturer (and it is possble the manufacturer will be * no * drivers for older operating systems supply - like XP.)
