4.1.1 Before installing Windows Media Player 11 (optional)
If necessary, before you install Windows Media Player 11, go to Windows Update and
install any high-priority updates that are available for your computer.
Perform the following steps if you wish to save media information and star ratings to your
media file, as well as back up your existing data:
1
In Windows Media Player 10, click Tools, and then click Options.
2
Click the Library tab, select the Maintain my star ratings as global ratings in the
media files check box.
>
The user ratings for your songs will be saved in your media files rather than in your library
database file (this may take several minutes).
3
Click Tools, and then click Process media information now.
>
This ensures that your ratings (and any changes that you have made to other media information)
are saved to your media files immediately.

Select Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Backup to backup
your existing data.
