1] Locating Windows Media Player Shortcut

Installing Windows Media Player in Windows 11/10.

Launching Windows Media Player via the Run dialog.

Windows 11/10 Enterprise and Windows 11/10 Pro LTSB (Long Term Service Branch) editions do not include Windows Media Player, but Windows 11/10 Pro and Home do. Here’s how you can find Windows Media Player in Windows 11/10 Pro as well as Home quickly. Has Microsoft removed Windows Media Player? Certainly not! Windows Media Player is alive and well in Windows 11/10. However, many of us fail to remember this name today.

In addition to this, you can share the content with devices around your home all from one place. MS support told me that this function of WMP is obsolete and only has to do with the 'home network groups', which aren't there anymore in current Windows builds.Windows Media Player not only allows you to store and view music, pictures, or video files but sync them to a portable device for enjoying on the go. But defining a folder as a 'Public save location' simply does nothing.

I thought: Okay, perhaps this setting shares the respective folder in the network. And to be honest, I have no idea why this setting is useful. The other save location is marked as 'Public save location'.

This is totally clear to me, as it refers to the place where files are ripped etc. One folder is the 'Default save location'. In the library settings I can add folders. On my Windows 10 machine (20H2), I use the Windows Media Player (WMP) and the libraries there to organize my music.
