I don't know what's wrong with Windows Media Player metadata over playlists.

When I trying to relocate some new songs to its new location using notepad++ (So that it could find and play them), Windows media player overwrites on those edits! I din't have this bug before and I haven't done any change on its setting so far!

  • Is the media player running when you are making the notepad++ edits?

  • I suggest that you first move the actual song files on disk and let WMP's library pick up the move (check the File Path column). Do you still see the same behavior if you edit the playlist afterwards? (provided that it hasn't been updated already with the new location by WMP)

  • Dear Tim De Baets! yes, apparently it worked! i only needed to let WPM to pick the songs up in its library! i couldn't believe how it lost its indexing through editing playlists. Anyway Thanks

As dear Tim De Baets said, the only way was to delete whole previous indexing in from WMP library and update the indexing from the beginning. (Organize -> Manage Libraries -> Music).
