Windows 10: Is there a fix for WMP corrupting first track when ripping CDs?

I see closed threads going back 10 years for the problem that WMP fails to get correct data for 1st track when ripping. Is there a way to retrieve data? Do people just use EAC or Foobar2000 instead?

Changed from Windows 7 to Windows 10, now WMP will not RIP Cds. Says WMP cannot RIP one or more tracks from the CD.

Changed from Windows 7 to Windows 10, now WMP will not RIP Cds. Says WMP cannot RIP one or more tracks from the CD. Tried several CD's and various tracks.

 

Rip cds on WMP

After you finish ripping a CD, move the tracks to a different folder.

The real way to do this is to let WMP download CD information from the internet. That way all four CDs will be uniquely identified.

 

WMP 12 won't rip some CD's in Windows 10

I am having a problem ripping some CD's with WMP, in Windows 10. I get the following error message: "WMP cannot download media information for this CD. The tracks, artists and album will be identified as "Unknown"
in your library. For best results, Connect to the internet or manually add media information for the CD."

I was expecting the CD to be ripped under "Unknown" artist but the CD ejects once I select OK, in the error window. These are new, store bought, commercial CD's.

What can I do to fix this?

Thanx
