WMP11 Album Artwork

Hello,

I am having trouble with Album Art in WMP11. Like many others, I have
decided to post a question, even though mine has probably been covered. I
have searched and searched, and none seem to answer my questions directly.
If there is an answer in this forum, not an external link, I would love a
referral.

I have loaded my library from another media player (iTunes). I started by
converting the m4a files to MPEG. I then let WMP11 find all my music by
pointing out where it was stored. WMP11 found my files and added them to my
library, but is having trouble with the artwork. Even when I find the
artwork by right-clicking and selecting "Find Album Info," it still does not
add, even though I select finished every time. The funny thing is this -
once I perform the task of manually finding the information, it will ususally
display in the "Now Playing" screen when playing, but will not display in the
library view no matter what I try.

Where does WMP11 store its Album Artwork? I may try to clear all artwork
and start over.

Thank you for your help.

BW

WMP stores album art in the same folder as the songs.
They are hidden by default.
If you paste album art, it is stored in the song
