Hi, i'm new using rainmeter, i download it yesterday on my laptop (Windows 10).
I try to install some skins, everything ok but the track and album info.
i try with this skin (no need config): http://easy-art.deviantart.com/art/WMP-Controller-178513786
same problem. and the time fails too.
i don't know why, but the skins can't get this info.
I'm using Ranimeter 4.1 beta (1st skin need it), Windows 10 Pro with the last update and WMP 12.0.15063.0
Thanks

Re: no song info using WMP on Windows 10
The music skin you have installed is very old and was written with specific method using registry key and window message. Maybe something has been changed in WINDOWS10? I think equivalent functions are now implemented as built-in Nowplaying plugin.
I recommend you to rewrite the skin to use Nowlaying plugin, or install another recent music skin using Nowplaying.

Re: no song info using WMP on Windows 10
thanks, i'll try to check the code and see how the plugin that you say work.
This skin is old yes, but the other skin i have is very new (http://tungmin97.deviantart.com/art/Nier-Automata-1-0-678811571)
The problem persists with this skin.
Also i see that the "welcome.ini" can't get my user picture (changes in windows 10 , i supposed). I'll try to fix it too.
thanks again

Re: no song info using WMP on Windows 10
Sorry for my bad speculation.
I am using modified Material Player with Windows Media Player and foobar2000 in Rainmeter4.0.0 and WINDOWS10 ver.1607, and have no problem.

Doesn't such simple player using Nowplaying plugin work on your system? If so, maybe problem is in either Rainmeter 4.1 beta or WINDOWS10 ver.1703...??
