So I have been using WMP for the longest time and now it will not hold ANY songs I put into it. It lost my library and will not allow me to add anything to it for whatever reason. What is another Media player you guys use or reccomend besides WMP? ---

winamp os probably better than VLC for keeping an organized music collection FYI VLC rules for video (or just double clicking mp3’s from a folder) though. You’ll never, for the most part, have to download another codec pack again. It’s very lightweight too ---

Have you tried it with winamp, maybe there is a setting in it to allow the frontal keys on your laptop to control skipping playing. Or you could reinstall WMP or update it or whatever.
