    Weird "No Name" Window appearing in taskbar w/ media files ?


    so was doing a bit of music organising and transferring same with movies etc. but every time im dealing with a media file this thing pops up. when hovering over it it clearly shows WMP window. but clicking on it does nothing.. anyone know how to fix this ? i thought this was a clicking issue so i made sure to delay the double click process. but no its whenever i click on a media file this shows.. doesn't matter if its 1 or 2

  2. N79; can't run " home media " menu

    sawatdee krap,

    maybe because you havent set any connections for "home media". i think it needs to connect with your computer. you also need to install SimpleCenter's Home Media Server software on your PC

    maybe this will help you -

    Enter on keypad " no. + # "

    petrib is correct. It is a shortcut to SIM numbers.

    Numbers on your SIM might not be in the position you think. Just because they appear sorted in alphabetical order in the contacts list doesn't mean that they appear in that same order on the SIM. On the SIM they appear in the order in which you input them,
    unless you delete a number in which case the next one entered takes its place.

    WMP is installed on my system and i have made sure every media file from M4A, MP3, AAC, MP4 etc etc are all set to their default app when opening. its just every time i interact or move media files from a folder to another this pops up in the task bar. it doesn't happen when i have media files on my desktop. only specially in folders.

    i also tried re-installing WMP but nothing has changed. it doesn't play anything. its just a blank window.. and when i hover over the window i see the WMP window. but obviously when clicking on it, nothing shows. its like its a ghost windows or something. and as far as ive seen nothing new appears in task manager

  6. Long shot and I'm an iTune user... Is your WMP set to automatically import / organized you library.

    What I'm thinking is that you are organizing files and it is responding. I read that this does not occur on desktop, maybe that is a location it is not monitoring. Like I said long shot.

    not quite sure what you mean by that.. only option i have enabled on the player side is to add any media track to my library. but beside that there is no automatic importing.

    i just dont know why or how to fix this issue... its becoming a pain when trying to play specific playlists or songs.

    :EDIT:

    it appears this no name window / glitched window can be interacted with.. i can press the play button and it plays what i clicked on either for shift clicking or what not. but doesn't follow window sound mixer settings

    Hi, what you're seeing appears to be a bug related to the Preview Pane, and WMP with mp3's and at least one other file type.

    Turn off your Preview pane, or use a different media player associated with mp3's. Other media players will place a picture related to the file e.g. cover art in the preview pane, with an icon identifying the player. However, only WMP, as far as I know, allows actually playing media in the Preview Pane.

    This problem has been mentioned a number of times on the internet, and seems a more recent issue in Win 10. I very recently posted examples on a thread I responded to.
