    WMP won't play music


    After over 20 years of enjoying music through WMP I find on this near new laptop with WIn 10 that WMP won't play music files from the music folder or those stored in the WMP library.
    So I went to give feedback via the Feedback Hub but the msg was not sent as I was informed this laptop was not connected to the internet. Well, as you can see from this post the connection is good.

    So what's going on in the MS world? Are they deliberately trying to vex us or is it just too many departments competing with one another instead of co-operating?

    I really don't have the energy to try to find a solution .... it becomes a mission and hour/days are lost while trying to comprehend some help desk person who is doing their best with what their screen tells them.

    Anyone else having WMP problems?

    What's a good free alternative?

    :)
