| Hi, one of my clients has a desktop running Windows 2000, SP4, with Windows Media Player 9 series. WMP will no longer play more than one song at a time which she finds very annoying!. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling WMP 9 but no luck. Have tried and checked that settings are correct for the media types. She says it happened after installing VLC media player. I've uninstalled that but still not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

| this is kinda a joke but you could try installing windows media player 10 or 11 either that or you could be using a playlist that she does not have the permission set to edit (windows permissions is a funny thing like that) try making an entirely new playlist and then playing that.

| First of all, thanks for your replies, but Windows 2000 doesn't support WMP 10 or 11. And my client does not wish to upgrade to XP.
If nothing can be resolved, I may just have to leave it. She is thinking of getting a new desktop anyway. Her old one will come my way in the next few months. Fully capable of XP! But that's besides the point. lol |

| There was two parts to my previous post. Did you check permissions? Make sure she has the computer permissions to change such a thing. Media player has a playlist somewhere in the documents and settings it uses to deal with permissions of such a thing. And there is a drag and drop setting somewhere in media player. Double clicking on a song will always open just that song. Dragging the song below it usually works for adding it to the current playlist. Media player works in playlists always even if you don't think you are actually making one. Also VLC might have placed an add-on inside of media player. You may want to try finding the media player add-ons and disabiling the possible VLC addon. So recap Permissions of that playlist file Windows media player is ALWAYS using playlists There is a drag and drop setting that might be configured wrong Possibility of add-on causing issue Last edited by dice14u : 18-12-2007 at 10:40 PM.
