Windows Media Player 12: Always show list

Hi everyone,

I recently updated my computer to Windows 7.

When I was on XP, the list pane of WMP 11 was always displayed in the right part of the screen (except in full screen mode).

Now on WMP 12, I have to manually right-click and choose "Show list" each time I open WMPand each time a new video starts .

Could you tell me how to permanently display the list pane ?

Thank you

Regards,

Phil

There is no way to get or save the "list pane" in Windows Media Player 12. You must create a playlist to see your play list pane.

I've been playing around with this for hours trying to get the same thing your tyring to get.  Microsoft has changed alot in version Windows Media Player 12. The last version of windows media player 11 is the only version that can show the playing list pane.

    Solution if list pane is gone when changing movie:

    This is a workaround from my part that I found helping when listpane is hidden after changing movies.

    • add a mp3 file in top of your playlist then the movies you want to watch after that.
    • with list pane and all files visible start your mp3 file and skip to next movie.
    • list pane might be hidden again, just choose to show it again and hit mp3 file then a movie file.

    FINALLY!  This solution works perfectly, and it's the only solution that appears to fix the original problem of the play list disappearing every time you change videos.
