I am currently using WMP10, using cds which have been ripped on My Music
(under My Documents) on my pc. And every so often for some reason, a bunch
of files just seem to be disappear and cannot be retrieved. The individual
songs can be seen under Library but when I double click to play, they appear
in orange and it says that the file cannot be found. However, I most
definitely have not moved or deleted the files. Has this happened to anyone
else as I am getting very tired of re-ripping my CD?! thanks
 
First, have you checked the Recycle Bin? If not there, they have very
likely NOT been deleted but moved somewheres on your harddrive.
Go to: Start>Search>Files and folders and type a key word of one
of the "misssing" songs and click Search. If and when it finds it you'll
probably find the rest of the songs. Now you can use Windows
Explorer, create a folder or directory where you know it is and put them
in there.
