I Lost All My Song Ratings!!!

Monkfish10 · 03-20-2006, 10:05 PM

OK...long story short.....after recovering from a major virus i got back on track and managed to use my D drive instead of C drive. i copied all my music etc across from C to D.....and it all works fine!!!

HOWEVER the thing is that there aren't any ratings next to my songs on windows media player! = Frustating because I spent absolutely ages on rating my songs!

Does anybody know any way to get my song ratings back!

ANY HELP OF COURSE WILL BE GREATLY APPREC.

If you just copy your music, then all you have are the songs. All the playlists and settings for the songs would have been left in another part of your computer.

Ok...do you know what filename/area my song ratings could be under?

Sorry i cant help ya there, my guess would be in the "application folder", located under your username in Documents and Settings.

and just for the record, that directory would be:

C:\Documents and Settings\<YOUR USERNAME>\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Player.

I dont use media player at all so mine is fairly empty, not sure if you will find anythign in there thats useful...
