Windows Media Player Icons gone !!!

Did you recently install any mp3 programs? IF not, the file associations must have been reset somehow. Shocking that a Microsoft product would do something so unpredictable isn't it? This can happen when you install a new mp3/media player program like Winamp or whatever. Some programs do this automatically when they install, overwriting the past settings. If it has no associations at all, try and go into the program options menu you wish to associate your files with and look the the check box *Associate filetype, or Open these type of files, etc.

Thanks , all sorted now !!

When you right click on an MP3 file (context menu), choose "open with" and be sure to check the box on lower left "always use the selected program to open ... " - should restore the file assiciations and return the icons ...
