Vista - Windows Media Library doesn't work

My windows media player 11 used to work perfectly (in Windows Vista Home
Premium) but now it does not work, I don't know why. I believe it can be
related with 'network sharing' because one day it appeared an error message
saying something about network sharing and that it was going to be closed.
From then on wmp library has never worked again. I tried to add files by
myself, but once again it didn't work. I can play music and videos without
any problem, but those are never added to the library. Windows Media Center
library does not work either and I don't know how to solve this problem.

I would be more than glad if anyone could give me any solution.

Thanks

ive got the exact same problem - very strange, ive tweaked with everything i
can think of, found a solution yet?

just now I tried to play a song and I can't get Media Player to load, zip,
nada, zero...............any ideas what is happening?

Hi! I bring good news!

I've found a solution to the problem!. Perhaps it is not the "rightmost"
solution, but it works. If you delete wmp's data base, it will create a new
one which works; it just deletes the information of the library, but it
doesn't delete the music. If you want to delete your wmp's database you have
to:
select "show hidden files" or something like that, then go to:
C:\Users\José �ngel\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Media Player\ then delete all the
archives. Perhaps the computer will not allow you to delete, but if you start
windows in safe mode, it will work.

Once you delete everything, wmp will create a new library.

That's all folks!
