Windows media play has unknown album with init files
Windows media player has never had this before. There is a unknown file with lots & lots of windows inside files. These files are located in
Common files > Arcsoft.Media browser
C: Windows Media
C: Windows > System 32
I removed them from the folder and of the lost Media player and he was to disseminate all my new in music.
I tried to clear the cache of database files, but he always comes back in my albums as unknown album
It is obvious windows Media Player needs to these files, but why they are all in this unknown folder with all my music
Hello
ArcSoft is probably either a software that is installed on your pc or something you downloaded for use for a particular reason? When did you first notice the problem? I would have suggested trying a system restore to a time before you were aware of the issue, but the changes you have done already can prevent that. Perhaps, it would be useful that you posted a screenshot of what you see in WMP. (Use the cutting tool to make a copy of wmp screen, save it and then ask it here, using the photo icon second from the right on the toolbar of response)-thank you R.

Hello
I have a XC of Aspire Acer-605, i5 with Windows 8 (bought 4 weeks ago)
When I open Windows Media Player 12, if I play music or not, in less than a minute, a box appears that says:
"Windows Media Player has stopped working: a problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly." Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
The only option then is to click on "close the program".
When I try to listen to music on CyberLink Power Media Player 12. I have the pop box saying:
"Play.exe stopped working: Please send us this report to help us solve the problem and improve this software."
The option only two then are "CANCEL" or to type my email and the problem then click on 'send report '. I did the second and nothing heard back.
XBOX media player works, but I don't want to use it.
I already scanned with McFee virus and it found nothing. I recently remove a virus from my computer. The problems may have started after that.
Can you help me to solve my problem?
After days and days of the trial, an online chat with a technician Microsoft (which was useless) I finally found a suggestion that worked... I had to create a new user account with administrative privileges. Media worked perfectly in this new account! I then spent ages downloading the files from my old account before deleting completely. It took a long time and has been a real pain, but at least it works now :-). Good luck to all. I hope this works for you xx

I am trying to sync my ipod with my windows media player and when I connect my ipod windows media play is not read. How can I sync my ipod with windows media player?
Hello
Your MP3 player should have 2 settings - MSC that should allow the player to be used as a
external drive and PSG that is the parameter to use to sync with WMP11. Remove the MP3
and restart the computer. Change the MP3 in MTP mode - it power off and plug it in.I hope this helps.

Hello Henry Michael,.
Please relay the e-mail program you use. You can also try to save the file directly on your local computer, and then check if the file is being read correctly. If there has been any recent codec package installation, you can also try to temporarily uninstall the codec package and then check out the question.
Thank you
