Right-click feature in Windows - No "Play in Winamp" option.

I'm not sure why but everytime i right-click on a music file or a folder, my Winamp options have dissapeared

Let me show you:

I've tried going into Preferences >> Shell Options and ticking a few options. Everytime I tick "Add Enqueue & Play to Winamp's associated file types", as soon as I close it it unticks itself

Please help!!!

I see that your are using Vista and that was a known issue for Vista users. What version of Winamp are you using? There is a fix for that in Winamp version 5.54. You may have to reassociate file types after installing 5.54.

Please do not PM me for tech support. Any request for tech support through PM will be ignored.

If not the Vista issue, maybe this old one (from Troubleshooters Sticky)...

Winamp disappears from Explorer context menus after installing Power/Magic ISO

By reassociate I ment...
1. Winamp > Ctrl+P (for preferences)
2. General Preferences > File Types
3. Click the 'None' button
4. close out of Prefs > close & restart Winamp.
5. Winamp > Ctrl+P (for preferences)
6. General Preferences > File Types
7. select the file types you want Winamp to play or click one of the select buttons
8. close out of Prefs > close & restart Winamp.
