Creating a Playlist

Most people find recording is easiest if it’s done from a playlist, a customized collection of music files. Here’s how to create a new playlist:

1. Click Create Playlist. Windows Media Player adds the new playlist.

2. Type a name for the playlist and press Enter.

3. For each song you want to include in the new playlist, either drag it from the library and drop it on the playlist in the Navigation pane, or right-click the song, click Add To, and then click the playlist in the menu that appears.

After your playlist has been created, you can view, play, or edit the list by clicking it in the Navigation pane.
