This is probably a softball, but it is killing me trying to figure this out.

My new MP3 player uses windows media player, which is fine. The problem is Windows Media Player lists every piece of music that I have ever had on my computer no matter when I deleted it. My question is, is there a way to have it scan through and take out all of the dead links or is this a manual operation?

You should be able to go in through your library and just delete them off of there, it should ask you if you want to delete from the library only or library and your computer.

If that doesn't work, then I'm not really sure.

Yeah, I was just hoping there was a scan option that would do it for me, but I probably am thinking of a totally different music program.

http://www.jakeludington.com/media_center_pc/20060122_delete_all_music_from_windows_media_center.html

To remove all the tracks, open Windows Media Player and click on the Library tab. In the left hand side of the player window, click on All Music. This displays only your audio tracks.

Select one file in your music library, then use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+A to select all music files in your library. Tap the delete key and then leave the option to Delete from library only before clicking OK to remove the files from your music library.

Then rescan

Right click on Library, then add to library
Make sure "add files previously deleted from library" is checked

I volume level - your milage may vary

Have a cup of Joe - this takes a bit.....

Though I'm sure there are more sophisticated and quicker methods, I do this with Nero burning software pretty easily. Just go to the song in the program, and go to edit it.
