Windows 10: WMP to USB

Hi, just bought a new car and want to use USB for media music. I've synced tracks from WMP to USB in shuffle and single track mode. However, when played it puts them in an Artist folder. not individual tracks. I am using Win 11 and WMP 10.ThxTony

WMP Problem

It should be there. Let's try again, step by step.

First, find out what version of Windows you have. Use the Winkey + R to bring up the 'Run' box, type Winver then click OK. You should see a version number, 1511, 1607 or 1703.

If you have 1703, open Settings > Apps. For any other version open Settings > System.

Click on Default in the list to the left (in 1703 it's called Default apps).

Scroll down the list to find 'Video player'. This will probably say the default is 'Films & TV'. Whatever it says, click on it to bring up a list of possible apps to set as the default. You should see something like this with Windows Media Player in the 'Choose an application' list. Click on Windows Media Player and it will become the default for all types of video.

 

How to force WMP to always apply/display changes to mp3 tag info?

Hello CS,
Quote: "...I'm not sure if your edit indicates that you found the answer to the quoted question above..."

Thank you for your reply. I was responding to your thread at the beginning of this thread which TD replied "...it should be listed in Extended Tags as a tag called RATING WMP...". So, I just did what you suggested and voila! The ratings that I've entered in WMP all these years show up in MP3tag! However, unfortunately a new rating I entered in WMP just now does not. I even rebooted my PC and still no luck. Does it happen with you too? Have I missed any steps?

 

WMP playlists are a mess

Between those two steps, delete them all out of the WMP view so that only the ones you have in the file folder are imported and are only listed once.
