Napster problems and Windows Media Player

[THECORBYLOON]

I can't listen to anything on Napster and looking on the inernet it seems to be a known Vista problem and I have to delete the Wmsdkns.xml file. Problem is I don't know what to do to locate it so that I can delete the flaming thing. Any help much appreciated.

Searching for files used to be a simple task in Windows95, 98, 98SE and ME. Then Microsoft decided to introduce 'improvements' in Windows XP which (unsurprisingly) made searching much harder. The search facility in Vista is now 'vastly improved' which (also unsurprisingly) means it's a total pain in the @rse to use!

Scroll down to 'Create an advanced search in the Search folder', here:

Follow the outline instructions, ensuring that 'Location' is set to search for all files on your hard drive and that 'date' and 'size' are set to 'any'. Also ensure that there's a check mark alongside 'Include non-indexed, hidden and system files'.

When you locate the file, right-click on it's name and choose 'Delete'.
