Nice! and duly noted this point (there are several reasons for this problem, though) :-)

Hello.... Having read somewhere that the Folder Task settings do get 'corrupted' and can be reset by deleting the following 2 keys, I took the risk...rebooted ...and it worked !!!

The unregmp2.exe command sequence set WMP as default, so no need to worry about that. If you want to check, use the Folder Options, FileTypes dialog. >> ok Ramesh....but what do I check there ??? I can't say for sure but try backing up the key and delete the sub-keys under ContextMenuHandlers one by one to see which is causing this.

If the problem persist: Do you have AVG installed. The freeware version of AVG seems to cause this problem. http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&c2coff=1&q=AVG+%22play+all%22 Remove all the audio files (except .mp3) from My Music folder and try "Play All". This is to see if it is caused by the Perceived Types key (I see that you've applied the edit on line 327 in Kelly's site.) -- Ramesh - Microsoft MVP Windows XP Shell/User http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k The Parasite Fight - Quick Fix Protocol: http://aumha.org/a/quickfix.htm ------------------------------------------------ "Ratan Maitra" <abc@xyz.com> wrote in message news:uvd3cWAREHA.1656@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... Thanks Ramesh...I did run those two commands...and after the first one....there was a message.. "DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in Shell32 suceeded"...but none after the second one. I have all types of video files...avi, mpg, asf/wmv etc...and mp3, wav,wma, mid etc audio types..and "Play all" doesn't work in either video tasks or audio tasks.

Hi Ratan, Try these commands from RUN box: REGSVR32 /i SHELL32 and C:\Windows\Inf\unregmp2.exe /SetWMPAsDefault If that does not help, let us know what's filetypes are present in the My Videos folder? (the video files).

Thanks a lot Kelly...but no luck. Even after applying the edit, "All play" still doesn't function, neither for audio nor video. Any other ideas?? As I have a lot of 'players' installed, it could be that the link can't find the path to the default player to play, as there appears to be a lot of background activity on clicking 'Play all" before giving up !!! I have selected all file type association with WMP 9, but still no improvement. How do I check the file path for 'All play' link??
