Lost Windows Media Player


Recommended Posts

I have two questions:

1) I never used Windows Media Player but lately my wife wants to use it to listen to radio , the thing is that I can't find it anywhere, no desktop icon and not in the start menu or in programme files (theres WMP there but no way to launch it). The only way I can get it to run is by right clicking on a music file and choosing 'open with'. I'm sure there's an easier way , like a command or something...

2) Is there a way to create a short cut to a radio station on WMP, my wife wants to listen to Japan:J-WAVE 81,3 FM which she found through the search function on Windows Media Player radio option. Can I make a short cut to this station so she doesnt have to go through the search procedure everytime she wants to listen?

You can also go to Start/ Search/ then type Windows media player and select All files and folders. You will get several entries. Double click on one at a time until the program opens, then close it again and right click on the line that gave the result, and select Create a shortcut. When you right click on the shortcut you should be able to select, Pin to Start menu.

Did you find it??

yes,yes . I couldn't find it on the start menu because a long time ago I cleaned the start menu from applications that I dont use . I put the shortcut in a special file called "unused applications" which I forgot about :blush: . When I ran Start/search I found it again . :lol:

Thank you....
