My WMP11 has spontaenously "broke" so to say. Previously, in the Library tab, when I left clicked on a playlist, the contents of that playlist would appear in the main section and I would be able to select individual songs to play, re-name songs, rate songs etc but now that's all changed for some reason. When I create a playlist, the new playlist is in the playlist folder but does not appear in the playlist list (It's been expanded so all playlists show also). When I left click on a playlist the main section of the library tab doesn't change and the only way I can see the contents of the playlist (whilst still under the Library tab) is to double click on a playlist to start it playing then click on the "Now Playing" icon further down the collapasable tree section. Also I can no longer re-name songs and I can't rate songs anymore. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix my problem, any help would be greatly appreciated as it's starting to annoy me. Also is there a way to re-install WMP11?

new updated ones. Also go here and download the latest Direct X drivers from MS. They change about every 30 to 60 days: microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=013C0F78-3C9B-44DC-B8BE-46783BCAC3CB&displaylang=en

Just wondering but how are my video card drivers related to viewing playlists? I've got the April release version of the Direct X drivers and I haven't had any problems with WMP11 and my video card drivers in the past. "f/fgeorge" wrote:

Those symptoms seem to be indicative of a library corruption - does http;//zachd.com/pss/pss.html#medialibrary reset you back to normal? Speaking for myself only. See zachd.com/pss/pss.html for some helpful WMP info. This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. "Stephen K"
