• Windows Media Player constantly loses library files

  I have a questions after the reconstruction of my PC where Windows Media 12 constantly loses its library content.

  The folders are added, but there is no content that is displayed.

  I tried the following without resolution

  • Rebuild the database
  • Deactivation of additional to retrieve from the Internet content
  • By selecting only add missing content
  • Restoration of the library

  Restore the library although temporarily before content is lost again.

  Thanks in advance

  The reason that my library lost files was to make the folder redirection of the AppData folder.

  Deletion of the redirect and allowing AppData to reside on the C: drive has solved the problem.

• Windows Media Player 11 lists and plays each song twice

  Why Windows Media Player 11 list and play each song twice without being in a loop? Help me

  I have problems with windows media player 11 playing each son twice and it is very annoying.  How can I solve this problem?

  Sara: 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. Then, follow these steps:

  -Restart the PC.
  -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click on the service and click on stop.
  -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
  -In this folder, delete the folder Media Player. If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
  -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists.

• Windows Media Player 11 Date added function - please stop repeating the date for EACH file.

  I have been using Media Player 9, decided to upgrade to Windows Media Player 11, and the only thing I can not stand on Player 11 is how it sorts Date added media files.  In Player 9 when I chose the column Date added, the program would list all the files on a given under a SINGLE date.  With Windows Media Player 11 it lists EACH file with a date so that instead of see Tuesday, December 14, 2010 once and then listing all of the files under it, I see Tuesday, December 14, 2010 about twenty times.  I download podcasts once a week and dump it on my phone, but it's a worry now.  Is it possible to stop Windows Media Player 11 to repeat the date again and again and force him to the date that the list only once?  Think back to Player 9.  Alex

  Hi Alex103,

  It's design in Windows media player 11 and it is also included in Windows Media player 12.

  However, you can uncheck this option, follow the steps below:

  a. open windows Media player

  b. right-click on one of the sorted column

  c. click Choose column

  d. uncheck data added

• Windows Media Player displays all on Itunes Album artwork after the conversion to Mp3

  I did everything to add my itunes for windows media player music files and when they are added there are missing kind and there is no change without my permission

  Hello

  You might have items in your library in Windows Media Player that are missing or incorrect information to the media, such as the titles of the songs, track numbers, artist names, album, or genre. Incorrect information can be added when you ripped the tracks from the CD or because you used another program to rip your CDs.

  See the steps in the following article:

  Hello

  ·         What is the format of the files that you play when you get this error?

  ·         Do you get what this error during playback of all files or a particular file?

  You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:

  1. the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

  2 - 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.

  You can try the steps and check if it makes a difference.

  a. to determine what codec was used with a specific file, play the file in the player, if possible. When the file is playing, right-click the file in the library, and then click Properties. On the file tab, look at the sections of video codec and Audio codec.

  b. download and install Codecs by clicking on the PLAYER tab and check. To connect to the Internet and automatically download the Codecs of the reader.

• I can't register names and create playlist appear windows media player acountered a problem when creating or saving the playlist

  appear windows media player acountered a problem when creating or saving the playlist

  To the WMP library, please click on organize and select manage libraries - music . What places are? If there is no available location, remove them and also make sure that a default save location is set. Do the same for the other libraries (videos, pictures, and Recorded TV).

  If this does not help, close WMP, open Windows Explorer, right-click the music library, select Properties and click on restore by default . After that, make sure that a backup location is defined (as indicated by a check mark).

• Receive the message error "Windows Media Player cannot extract one or more tracks from the CD"

  Original title: Windows Media Player 12 in Windows 8 - will not tear, will not allow rip parameter changes

  Recently started Windows Media Player displays this error message when I tried to rip CDs: "Windows Media Player cannot extract one or more tracks from the CD." When I checked the rip settings, I found that no location has been chosen, even if I had chosen a location when I first set up WMP over a year ago. When I clicked on the "Change location" button, nothing happened, so I'm not able to choose a file location. I downloaded and Fix It (http://support.microsoft.com/mats/windows-media-player-diagnostic-Windows-8/en-us) from Microsoft allows WMP and the library, hoping this would solve the problem, but the problem persists. After that, I also found that none of the rip settings can be changed, not only the location of the file. I get an error message that "ripping settings could not be applied" when I try to change anything on the tab music Rip under Options. I found a support of forum responses that mention a registry fix but does not provide any details on how to achieve this. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Were there any changes (hardware or software) to the computer before the show?

  Ripping allows you to put the titles of your audio CD on your PC. When you rip the tracks, they become digital files on your PC.

  There are two places in the Player library where you can customize your settings and better to make ripping work:

  • In the Rip settings menu (with less choice customization).

  • In the Options dialog box (with several choices of customization).

  Method 1: run the tool library, Windows Media Player and Windows Media Player settings and check if the extraction is possible.

  Step 1:

  a: press the logo Windows + O to open the search box.
  b: Type Troubleshooting, press ENTER.

  c: now, click on programs.

  d: and then click Windows Media Player  library.

  Step 2:

  a: press the logo Windows + O to open the search box.
  b: Type Troubleshooting, press ENTER.

  c: now, click on programs.

  d: and then click Windows Media settings.

  Method 2: Perform the steps from the link below and see if it helps.
