How do I get lime wire to download songs onto windows media instead of music match juke box?

Question

Answer 1

Windows Media Player and Music Match Jukebox are players. The files are not downloaded to them, they're played by them. The files are downloaded to your computer's hard drive.

Run the "Set Progarm Access Defaults" applet from the Start Menu to change your default media player.

Answer 2

LimeWire isn't downloading songs to a specific player, it's just downloading them to your computer. If they're playing in MusicMatch after they've downloaded it's only because you've got your actual PC set to use MusicMatch as the default player.

To play them in Windows Media Player you can either open WMP first then select the File->Open menu item and browse your computer for the tunes, or you can set WMP as your default music player. To do that:

- Find one of the downloaded tunes on your PC and click on it with the right hand mouse button.
- On the menu that pops up, select the Open With option then the Choose Program option.
- In the dialogue that pops up, select Windows Media Player from the list of programs and check the "Always use the select program" checkbox then click OK. That sets Windows Media Player as the default application to handle that file type on your machine.
