Windows Media Player 12 - Options (dialog box) / Rip music/change... button does not.

I have not tried to copy a CD for a while (WMP 12.0.7600.16667) and today, when I tried to put the "rip music to this location" (the value is blank) the button 'change... '. "does not work.  (Visually) is the button to click, but the 'Find a file' dialog box does not appear.  If any of the settings in the dialog box are changed and you press the OK button, the following error message appears: "ripping settings could not be applied.  I was able to rip CDs in the past on this computer (Windows 7) without problem (finally made on May 27, 2010).  I have faithfully install all the recommended updates.  There has been no hardware changes.  iTunes will rip a CD without problem!  It acts as the standard connection 'Find a file' window dialog box has been lost by the player, or will not be activated for some reason any.  Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have a few new CD I want to extract and add to the music library.

Thanks LoydN

Saved my butt.  Has worked as you say.

I spent hours trying to solve the problem.

    I use Windows Media Player 12 on Windows 7 Home Premium OS V..  I was rip CDs to this computer for years without any significant problems and have hundreds of CD in MP3 format in my library of music.  When I recently tried to rip a new batch of CD, the albums were coming all up as 'Unknown' album & artist, "track 1, track 2,... and follow n for the titles of the songs."  After the investigation period, a pop up window would come saying "Windows Media Player cannot download information on the media for this CD... "What has happened to WMP and how to fix it?

    HI - the first necessary check is if nothing has changed after a recent update for the media player (you may remember being asked to set your preferences) view of library in WMP go to 'organize' - 'options' and check that internet access is authorized and in the privacy, the "online display media information" tab is checked. If these settings are correct, then we will study more deeply... Thank you - r.
