• Windows Media Player keeps adding files to the image library

  Why Windows Media Player (version 12.0.10011.16397 on Windows 10) continue to add folders to the photo library? I have used libraries to manage all files-> deleted photos and add the only folder I want. After a while, even without having to restart Media Player, the default images and OneDrive files reappear. Please can someone stop this madness?

  I found the answer to this question. I had problems with cancelled OneDrive and re-Binder tries to solve the problem. In turn, every time I re-related OneDrive the additional files got added to the Media Player automatically and without notice.

• After removing a virus from my computer, I can't access any of my programs like Windows Media Player. Pop - up says choose program to open the file type.

  After removing a virus from my computer last year, I struggle to access most programs such as media player and other things.  When I try to open something, I get a popup asking me to choose the program I want to use to open this file. For some programs, this file is actually listed.  But for the most part, they did not.  For example, Nero express is what I use to copy CDs or DVDs.  I have to go into a safe mode to use it as well as using programs to run virus checks.  I was told that the virus had somehow corrupted or affected my file extensions.  I almost had cheated using powerful PC Max but did some research beforehand.  Any suggestions?

  original title: File Extension problems

  If you need to go to Safe Mode in order to use certain applications (for example, Nero Express), particularly antivirus scans, you most likely have not successfully removed all malware from your computer.

  How did you remove the virus from your computer last year?

  You then install an antivirus application?  Which one?  Are you still using it?  What's his current subscription? Its subscription has already been authorized expiration?

  What version of Windows, including service pack, do you use?

  What other anti-malware software do you currently use?

  Have you analysed recently with the following free tools?  Otherwise, download, install, update and run scans (not simultaneously) with each of them:
  MalwareBytes AntiMalware
  SUPERAntiSpyware
  Like many also restore file associations.

  • Right-click on a file and select open with > choose program.
  • Look in the lists of programs (split in 'Recommend programs' and 'Other programs')
  • If you can't find the application you want to use to open this type of file, click on the button "Browse".
  • The "Program Files" folder should open (if it isn't, go to C:\Program Files
  • Find the program you want to use.  If you are looking in C:\Program Files\------, you determine which file is the actual program.  You should be able to tell from the icon.  If not, see note below)
  • Select the program (the exe file or the name of the program in one of these lists) and check the box "always use the program selected to open this type of file"
  • Click OK
  • Repeat the above for each type of different file according to the needs

  Note: If you need to determine the EXE file for an application, just right-click on the shortcut you use to start the program, and then select Properties.  Click on the tab "shortcut".  The 'Target' box contains the path name to go to the executable (EXE file) for the program.   For example, the executable file for Firefox is "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"

  There are a few exceptions, including but not limited to Microsoft applications, which use a more obscure reference to the target.  Word, for example, indicates the 'target' as a 'Microsoft Office' gray of no matter the version.  The real exe for Word is 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICEnn\WinWord.exe' where the nn refers to the version of Word that you have (Word XP/2002 is 10, Word 2003 is 11, Word 2007 is 12, Word 2010 is 14).

  If you need assistance with a shortcut that does not directly show the name of path, ask.

• My Windows Media Player keeps initializing itself arbitrarily. How can I stop doing that?

  I am running Windows Vista.  The right media player appears arbitrary and is extremely frustrating.

  Hello

  1. you remember to make changes to your computer before the problem?
  2 - is the problem occurs when you perform a particular task?

  I suggest you put your computer in a clean boot State, and check if the problem persists.

  Note: Follow step 7 to your computer as usual.

• Windows Media Player keeps opening by itself. Whenever I close it, it opens upward again.

  Also, when it is open, it keeps dominant control of pc by making the application active every few seconds.  If I go into another window it comes down soon to WMP as the active application.

  This is a new computer.  He did not at first, but began to arrive a few days after installing iTunes.  I realized that I was still running SP1 of Vista so I downloaded and installed SP2.  He ran for awhile ok then after a few hours of running WMP began to open again.

  Sometimes he begins to start and sometimes it starts after the computer is running.  The last time he started to happen, I was in the middle of another windows update software and was not actively working on the computer.  Just run the update.

  It won't let me be disable it with the Task Manager.  As soon as I stop the application it opens right away again.

  I searched my card documents and settings of virus with the latest free version of AVG and it is came with a Trojan infection and moved to the vault. This solves the popping up of WMP: D!

  In addition, the Trojan horse was named "Agent2.BMMK Trojan horse"
  See you soon and I hope this has been useful to some ^^
  EDIT: I have the Lycosa keyboard also but have never had a problem with WMP pop-ups until today. Could be the keyboard, but there still everything went well after the removal of the Trojan horse.

• my Media Player is popping and jumping ive tried everything that was suggested

  my Media Player keeps popping ive tried the suggestions online nothing worked

  Hello

  Saying that you tried all proposed does not tell us what has been suggested or tried.

  In WMP, there are sound effects that you probably should turn off.

  WMP - view - Plug-ins - other (it can be anything)

  WMP - view - improvements - Graphic Equalizer and SRS WOW & playing speed and other settings can affect the
  sound quality.

  http://windowshelp.Microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/36db5c82-9247-4346-909a-f87743b653ae1033.mspx#EFC

  1. right click the icon of speaker near right lower clock - peripheral of reading

  Highlight speakers - properties (right same low page) - tab improvements - check Disable all sound effects
  Apply - OK

  2. check the configuration - Device Manager - sound, video and game controller

  Note name and complete model of the audio device - full decription - now double click it.
  Driver tab - notice the driver version. Then click on set to update driver (maybe nothing like MS is far
  behind the pilots of certification). Then right CLICK on the device - UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it will refresh
  the driver stack.

  Now go to system Maker and look for the updated drivers (or get the same if no new) it will be
  your rescue. Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-RIGHT click in it - RUN AS ADMIN

  Then do the same for the manufacturer of the device (like Realtek or who made the device).

  NOTE: Often restore audio drivers to check the version after installing and restarting is
  see if the version you have installed is there, otherwise repeat the installation - restart until it is. This may take
  several tests according to the recommitments how much he makes.
  
  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• How to transfer music from the flash drive to the Windows Media Player library

  Windows Media Player

  How transfer music from my USB to Windows Media Player.

  Hi johndeere,.

  Copy music from the external hard drive to record music and make sure that this folder is set to be monitored by Windows Media Player.

  a. to add or remove folders follow these steps:

  b. click on tools in Windows Media player

  c. then select Options.

  d. click on the Library tab

  e. and then click monitor folders.

  f. to add a folder to the folder list, click Add. Navigate to the folder of your choice.

  g. click OK.

  Windows Media Player keeps track of the files on your hard drive. It monitors new files, renamed files, deleted or moved files. When it detects changes, it updates automatically the media library. Windows Media Player watches my music, my videos files and default recorded TV.

• Error: "Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you try to play, burn, or sync an item that is in your library, the element can point to a file that has been moved, renamed or deleted'

  Original title: laptop won't read the music files stored on external hard drive

  I have an old Compaq laptop Windows XP, so it was out of memory I transferred everything on a Portable Seagate (500 GB) hard drive and started to access it. It's worked well for over a year, but lately, began to stop playing my music files. Absolutely everything on the hard drive opens, however, images, files and folders, but when I go into Windows Media Player, it pops up with this error message:

  Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you try to read, burn or sync an item that is in your library, the element can point to a file that has been moved, renamed, or deleted.
  I have not modified parameters or anything that moved. I used to be just able to restart the laptop, or disconnect and reconnect the hard drive and it works again, but now it or not will be not at all, or it will cut off half way through a song and then not to play anything more.
  I can't find any support for this problem because the phone reads that the hard drive is there, and everything else works. Only the music doesn't. I tried to play music on a connected USB and it works fine. I'm so confused!

  To resolve the problem, try to disconnect and reset. See your device manual for specific instructions on performing this procedure.
