Windows 7 Windows 7 Media Player Won't Play MUSIC!

[Noobert]

So My Windows 7 doesn't play ANY music.

I had a recent W7 update and I clicked on a song.

Windows Media Player [wmp] opened and gave me a few options. To follow the recommended option and custom. I obviously chose the Recommended Option cause I just downloaded a whole brand new album. Now it does not play any music from my Computer.

Please help, Thank you

What format are the songs in.

You might want to take a look at Winamp. I have use it to play all my music for years and it has some great visualizations too!

Winamp Media Player - MP3, Video, and Music Player - Winamp

This may relate to my answer in the other post, try right clicking on one of the music files and in properties tell it to play this type file with Windows Media Player.

It will surely fix your problem.
