I'm not sure if I can explain this right, but Ill try. With Windows 10 "My Music" file, some songs will play and most don't. They are WAV files. Of course when I double-click the WAV file nothing happens on most files. I have tried Safe Boot, but that didn't fix it either. The files that play are all random. I don't have any more to say about this at this time. Maybe someone can help me out. Oh, I wasn't using Windows Media Player either. Something called Groove. Thanks.

Train and Midnyte, The VLC seems to work for me anyway. Midnyte, the AIMP Website surprised me at first being in Russian till I looked over and noticed you can have it in English too. :) Thanks.
A streaming service is just not designed to well for playing music.
Why is that Train? What's your take on One Drive? Is that a free service? Thanks for the tips.Quote:

600 GB of family heirloom data, 17 years of work, I just do not trust the cloud to have it disappear.
If you use a streaming music service, you have the following potential issues:
Service is not available when you want it.
Service does not have the music you want.
Service uses data bandwidth each time you play a selection, which may cost you money each time.
Service may have a monthly or annual fee.
Advantages of music files stored on your device:
You pay a one time fee for them.
No internet connection needed to play them.
Train and jdc2000, Sorry to hear your problem with One Drive Train. Don't blame you for not trusting them. And thanks for the info jdc2000. I won't be paying any fees for their service then. Too many issues and not enough positives.
