Good evening everyone,

I am discovering Windows 10 and while trying to change the extraction path from CDs, I realize that I can't because the window is not optimized, so I can't see the right side and I can't resize it.

Do you have a solution?

Thank you for your help.

    Hello,

    The problem is known and has been mentioned here: https://forums.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich-36800388-fenetre-des-options-non-complete-sur-lecteur-windows-media
    (Some tips but no solution to get the complete windows back).

      Indeed, a solution works:

      The bug of the incomplete CD extraction settings window indeed prevents you from choosing the extraction target; here’s the solution:

      1. Left-click on the link that appears in "Extract music to this location"
      2. Press the TAB key on your keyboard
      3. Press the SPACEBAR on your keyboard

      Magic! You can change your extraction target on your PC.

    Hello. WMP 12 dates back to W7 (2009). At that time, with the W7 windows, everything was accessible. Since W10, the software has obviously been poorly handled, and some buttons are off-screen.
    Maybe by searching in the registry you could find this area and modify it with REGEDIT.
    Otherwise, a software with the same purpose has been written: MediaMonkey. Version 5 (not final) is similar to WMP.
