• Windows Media Player is unable to extract one or more tracks from the CD.

  I also got this message "Windows Media Player is unable to extract one or more tracks from the CD" pop up in an attempt to 'Copy' the CD!  I have Windows 7 and had NO problem for several weeks, ripping my music from CD sales in my MUSIC folder.  I got all "parameters" laid so that whenever I inserted a new CD he automatically pulled and then ejected.  I had NOT brought any changes to settings but for some reason all of a sudden it doesn't work anymore?

  I have trried restart, check all the parameters according to your advice making SURE that all the files of 'Target' were correct (they are), but all that happens is a few seconds after I insert a CD it gives me this message (Windows Media Player cannot extract one or more tracks from the CD.) and then the CD will eject with NO of TEAR that occur?  It's VERY frustrating!  There, can anyone help?  Please?  I have NO idea where to check then!

• Windows media player will show it's extraction and burning, but then the burned cd does not play?

  Windows media player will show it's extraction and burning, but then the burned cd does not play? Used to work properly, then a few days ago decided not to make a playable copy.

  Your setting got changed if you don't burn it as audio. This is the setting you need to change...

  Click the dropdown arrow in the "burn" pane and select "audio disc" and you should be ok again. R

  (You will need to start over with a fresh blank disc).

  Download and install a pack of codecs, such as K-Lite (Google for it). You can find THAT WMP can then read the file.

  Or

  Download and install a small program called Gspot (Google it)! Drag and drop in its window one of the files, you can't plzy. It will tell you which codecs are used. You can then download and install the only after doing a search on the web for it.
