Media Library

TMW · 22nd August 2010, 21:29

Hi guys!

I've been using winamp now for years, but have recently upgraded to Windows 7. Had to do a reinstall of winamp when I did so. Now my media library clears on exit, ie. every time I close the program it just clears my library. When I start winamp again, it's empty and I have to import all of my music every time. With just over 11,000 tracks you can understand this is getting a bit annoying.

Do you know of any fix for this issue?

when you say you've upgraded to Win7, was it an in-place upgrade or a completely fresh install? as it sounds like you're settings folder doesn't have the correct write permissions. please post a plug-ins list (http://forums.winamp.com/showthread....161361#plugins) which will make it easier to work that out.

It's a completely fresh install of winamp, Ie I removed it before the in place upgrade, cause I'd heard of a few issues with the upgrade. No other plugins are installed, I will post my list a bit later tonight when I get home.

Thanks for the response
