• Windows media player rating system / random play

  I'm having a problem with my Windows media player and its rating system. After so much time to listen to all my music on random, he started playing some songs more frequently (based on evaluations of random playback) than others. (E.g. you have 100 songs in your music folder. You play all, but randomly. After a day or two of that, along with some songs will be raised by default 3 stars, while that others who have not been chosen at random so far not.) The random function is very fond of top rated music.  I want to know how to disable the rating system. Is there any other option than to go through my entire music collection and give a rating of 5 stars?

  Unfortunately, I don't think that it is possible to disable the function of automatic scoring of WMP.

  You can, however, create an auto playlist that excludes most recently played songs, by adding a condition to Date played last is previous to the x . Then, you can play this auto playlist instead of all music. For more information, search help WMP AutoPlaylist .

• Windows 7 - Windows Media Player 12 blocks almost everytime

  Hello

  Almost everytime I open Windows Media Player 12, it crashes. Usually, the window opens but is grey and the cursor indicates that it is busy.

  I tried the following two methods to fix the problem.

  Method 1.
  1. click on start and in the search bar type cmd.exe
  2. right click on cmd.exe and click Run as administrator
  3. in the command prompt, type the following command

  net localgroup "Administrators'" NT Authority\Local Service "/ Add 4. press on enter and restart the computer
  

  Method 2.
  Uninstalling and reinstalling Windows Media Player:
  Step 1.
  Uninstalling Windows Media Player:
  1. go to start and in the search type "Turn Windows willing or not.
  2. click on "Turn Windows features on or off".
  3. search for multimedia and uncheck the brand in the face of Windows Media Player.
  4 restart the computer
   
  Step 2.
  Reinstall Windows Media Player:
  1. go to start and in the search type "Turn Windows willing or not.
  2. click on "Turn Windows features on or off".
  3. find the multimedia functions and place a check mark in front of the Windows Media Player.
  4 restart the computer.

  Method 2 resolves the issue. However, it got to the point where WMP 12 is useless because almost everytime, it blocks and I'm not ready to have to restart my PC twice in order to watch a video or listen to music.

  Come on Microsoft - please get your this sort and give us a proper and permanent solution to the problem of 7/WMP 12 inherant Windows.

  Kind regards

  I had this problem for months, it was really making me nervous. But I've sorted it.

  The problem was in pictures, corrupted files, not wmp or music that I assumed that would be the question.

  Heal... GB of photos and video. I had some files that had no picture. These are the corrupted files that were the cause of the problem. I had 8 photos and 2 videos that I downloaded on my iPhone 5. I just don't understand how or why it happened. Not a clue.

  Even removing them was difficult, as I went to remove WMP shutdown.

  So I google and download "File Assassin" work all works fine now.

  I curse me Microsoft WMP, but Apple has been the cause of the problem.

  Good luck, WMP is so much better than ITunes.

  If it works let me know. I just would like to know if it helps someone.

• 1: 0x80042318__2 system restore error: Windows Media Player 11 will not work open__3: Internet Explorer 8 crashes when opening.

  I have these three questions of program after reinstallation of Windows Vista and tried (mostly unsuccessful) using Windows Easy Transfer to move and reinstall my programs and files. My computer had some problems before start, (it would be almost always gives me the blue screen at startup and go into Startup Repair). The Startup Repair wouldn't fix anything and just lose about 20 minutes of my time. Finally, he wouldn't even load at all and the Startup Repair did not help so I decided to reinstall Windows Vista. It worked perfectly until what stupidly, I decided to try and use Windows easy transfer if everything goes well "to" my programs this new copy of Windows Vista.

  So now my questions are: Windows Media Player 11 does not open. I don't see a thumbnails of videos that would open with Windows Vista either. Oddly, although I can use Windows Media Center very well. I also installed Quicktime player and it seems to work perfectly.
  It was not catastrophic but especially a gene. I use VLC player to manage most of my videos very well, but love using WMP before.

  Second: I can't create restore points at all. Once I try, I get this error message:
  "The restore point could not be created for the following reason:
  An error was detected in the copy Service VSS (Volume Shadow). The problem occurred while trying to connect with the VSS writers. Please check the event system service and the VSS service are running and look for errors related to event logs. (Ox80042318) Please try again. »

  Finally, for some reason any after the transfer, eventually after Internet Explorer automatically updated it will completely freeze when I open it. This is for me the prompt to open the session previously was crushed, and if I try that or close the dialog to open just the home page, it will freeze completely, even the blue circle next to the name of the tab to load.
  Fortunately, I have Firefox and Google Chrome installed, both work very well.

  Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm not entirely fretting on IE8 and WMP 11 but I feel really that less stressed if I know that I have a System Restore Point in case my previous numbers start to happen again.

  Here are my system specs, in case that dans le cas ou c' est is somehow useful.

  Other things you can try after trying the suggestions "Sreenkanth T" is to run the ChkDsk program.

  Windows Easy Transfer moves not installed third-party programs on the whole, he does that move their settings, your files and settings Windows.

  As you have just reinstalled Vista, where were your old programs and files (on which machine) when you used Windows Easy Transfer, you still have access to them?

  You have to maybe do the reinstall once more but forget your settings and just manually copy all of your data?  This way you will give you restart with no old parameters of any other machine?

  You can also consult the third-party program (costs a little money), but he can move everything, including the programs installed.
