If you are not able to play any file from second time in windows media player then I think you should try to insert any audio cd and rip that audio cd In your laptop. Once it is saved in your laptop after ripping is complete then plays those files in your windows media player. If this files works perfectly in your media player then there is something wrong with your other files try to change their location and then try to play those files. I hope after doing that you will not face any problem.

If you are facing this problem regularly then I think first you should uninstall the windows media player and then restart the laptop. After doing that delete all the temporary files from your laptop and again restart the laptop. After doing that install the windows media player again in your laptop. Now try to play those files in your media player again. I think after doing that you will not face any issues with it. Try this solution and let me know what the result is?

I have gone through your post and after reading your whole problem I suggest you to first install the latest windows media player from Microsoft official site. After downloading that uninstall the old version of windows media player from your laptop. Now install the windows media player which you have downloaded. After installing that you will not face any problem with your windows media player. You can also try to plat your music files and video files in other player which are available on internet.

After doing that install the windows again it will solve your windows media player problem for sure. After doing that you will be able to play all the files in your windows media player.
