I recently created a folder on my desktop called Music and used WMP 10 to
monitor this folder so it could organize the files nicely and gather missing
tag info and cover art. Now that I am done with this folder, I moved the
contents and deleted the folder. After that I removed all entries from the
Monitor Folders option in WMP10. Unfortunately for me, everytime I start
windows media player now, it auto-creates a folder on my desktop called
Music. this is quite annoying as I keep having to delete this file mantually
after the player closes. Has anybody else had this problem or can you
reproduct it? I tried to email support to report a bug but could not see
spending $35 to make their product better after I could not find mention of
this error in the news groups.

Have you removed the references t othis file under WMP's Tools:Options? Is
it still your My Music/Rip folder or a monitored folder?

Yes - all references were removed and the folder was deleted. Each time I
start Media Player it shows back up. Very strange.

Odd... you can try searching the registry for the path, perhaps.... ?
