Hi Folks,

It seems that for for Vista Home Basic there is no option to disable WMP in the windows options in the control panel. I never use WMP but if it gets started by accident it starts destroying all my album art.

Can any one tell me where the WMP executables are? I will rename them.

Or you can get a free autokill program. I found that to be the simplest solution. I had WMP and mobsync.exe in my autokill list.

You can find them on freeware download sites. Try
softpedia
snapfiles
sourceforge.net
and similar.
