I copied this link from a reply to another query similar to yours.
http://www.zachd.com/pss/pss.html#medialibrary Dr Zach knows what he is talking about, but the answers do rather assume that technologically, you and I know what the heck he's talking about, too. I remember using this last time my son inadvertantly downloaded wm10, leaving me with the same problem you describe. On that occasion I was able to bin the hated wm10 and re-install wm9 which has never yet failed me. Now, however, the mighty MS corp has seen fit to stop us doing that. When you read the fixit, it jumps you to the previous line where you have to find and rename your media library. I have XP and all I did was to copy the filename including the %userprofiles% bit which renames itself to YOUR username automatically, NB you will have to re write 'microsoft' in the file name, as it is spelt wrongly in the copy. Then I opened 'search'. copied the filename directly, re-spelt microsoft as above, and it instantly found the library. I then right-clicked it in the search box to rename it, added the letter a to the end of the _219 bit of the filename and that's it. I opened up the media player and did the usual add to library by adding a folder, and it leapt into action immediately. In case you can't find the page the link sends you to, this is the corrected filename you need. "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Player\CurrentDatabase_219.wmdb Good luck. -- Wurze "Tom" wrote: > I can't open my media library and also not even import new songs...
