Open the folder in File Explorer, and you’ll notice the available choices for applications. The exact options may vary depending on your settings.
Yes, you can right-click the folder and add it to the Windows Media Player playlist. The folder size is flexible as long as you're comfortable with it. The process is straightforward, regardless of the folder's extent.
Absolutely, the statement you gave is accurate. However, Windows Media Player behaves differently—you must open the folder, choose everything, and then add it to the list via right-click. VLC supports this method but can handle more file formats. Once added, it launches automatically with the correct order unless you rearrange files, which usually isn’t ideal for large collections like a 200-folder list. You can add tracks individually or in batches, keeping your saved lists intact and editable. Groove Music works similarly but also downloads album art and has autoplay features. WMP and VLC both support video playback, though once you save a playlist, files stay accessible unless moved. It’s a bit quirky, but it feels reliable—especially since it’s been around for decades.
