Winamp crashes after emptying recycle bin

WoodrowShigeru · 28th July 2012, 20:44

I noticed that a file from the recycle bin has made it into my library - not that surprising as the library consists of the whole partition "M:\". So I emptied the bin, why would that be a bad idea? Yet, ever since, Winamp crashes whatever song I'm playing, whatever playlist is loaded, whatever anything. I can't even listen to a whole single song anymore.

Using Winamp v5.61. The Event Viewer doesn't give much more than this:

Quote:

faulting application winamp.exe, version 5.6.1.3133, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x03709f8d.

I searched for "crash empty recycle bin" and couldn't find any helpful hits.

Well, I don't know what the problem was yesterday but it's gone now. I can listen to my msuic again without any crashing. Apparently all I needed was a reboot? Fresh day, fresh start, I guess.

Anyway, you can disregard this now. Good day, sirs.

Actually, I wanna add to this: the crashing does re-occur, it's not gone, and a PC restart isn't really what's "repairing" anything. The problem doesn't have anything to do with the recycle bin but rather with an USB connection to my new smartphone.

So, never mind the whole thread. As I'm finding results via search, I'll consider this thread closed.
