my son's computer is acting up at the moment and in case i have to wipe it and start over (and if i do i'll kill him ) i'll need to back up his copy of the media player library, but i don't know how to do it. can anyone help?
thanks in advance (btw if i find any music that shouldn't be there, let's just say that it will err..well..."go missing" from his hard-drive )
There are two files that need to be copied to create a backup: CurrentDatabase_59R.wmdb and wmpfolders.wmdb.
They exist in hidden folders along this path: C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Player
Just replace the UserName above with your correct user name and you shouldn't have any trouble finding the files. Your CurrentDatabase_59R.wmdb may be pretty big depending on the number of songs/albums in your Windows Media Player.
