Hello,
I installed Windows Media Player 12.0 on Windows 7 Ultimate. I have noticed that it always opens in library no matter what I do. I would like it to open in "Now playing". Are there some settings that make make it behave the way it does? What should I do?
You have a wmplayer.exe shortcut on your desktop, right click it
Select the Shortcut tab
You will see the Target of the shortcut
Place your cursor after the ….exe" and type
/prefetch:1 /Task NowPlaying
(There is a space between the exe" and /prefetch and inbetween prefetch:1 and /task)
Click OK
Click the shortcut and watch it open in the correct window.
Hi!
Here is the reason why Windows Media Player always open the Library instead Now Playing mode.
You may had think that the player itself is the problem. But, it is actually Windows Media Player's shortcut.
Every time you click on Windows Media Player shortcut, this windows will pop out.
Now, you should right click on the shortcut. You'll see the combination code. At the end of the code is Task prefetch:1 sentence.
Then, you should change that last part with Task NowPlaying sentence.
Finally, you will be able open Windows Media Player in Now Playing mode.
Hope this solution will help you.
