  2. Libraries?? What's the difference between Windows Media Player Libraries and File Explorer Libraries?

    Hi Community,

    I am trying to find out

    1: how to use Windows 10 File Explorer libraries?

    2: what libraries are for?

    3: how Windows 10 File Explorer libraries are different or similar to Windows Media Player libraries?

    4: Where does Windows Media Player get its media database from?

    I see Libraries listed in File Explorer and the subfolders Music, Pictures, Videos.

    I have found out how to add folders to them. (by right clicking the folder I want to add and clicking 'include in library', then choose the appropriate library for the file type).

    When I open Windows Media Player, I can choose Music, Pictures or Video from the list on the left of the player. However, the files in Windows Media Player Video Library are not the same ones as the files I've added to the File Explorer Video Library.

    Any helpful advice appreciated.

  3. Still Use a Software Media Player for Music? If so, what? (Poll)

    I use iTunes for my music library, as I have an iPod and it's kind of essential. For random music/audio files, I use Windows Media Player.

    Can not add Music album from Music library of computer to Media Player files

    I have a few Albums stored in my Computers Music Library. I want to copy one particular album (the album has about 7 files - i.e. 7 music tracks) to
    Windows Media Player album Library. When I right click on the album in the Computer's music library, one of the options is to
    PLAY with windows media player - but another option is to
    ADD to Windows Media Player List
    ......but when I choose the later (ADD to list) all that happens is that the album starts to
    play - but does not get added to the Media Player album list. How do I overcome this problem. I am running Windows 7.
