Solve : Lost file destination line.?

Answer»

More out of curiosity than need.But it has been bugging me.
Operating Windows 7 64 bit.
Until recently have been using Windows Media Player to rip music from CD's to Mp3 format.
Recently,  the option to send the completed file to a folder has disappeared from the dialogue box. (Where the "browse" button used to be is now a blank space
My question.
If I download Windows Media Player again and "run" it over the old one, would it repair the missing browse option?
Would it interfere with the playing of CDs?
I have tried entering a command line in the space, but it will not allow this even though there is a blinking cursor there.
I have the alternate option of using Nero but am CURIOUS as to what has happened.
Trying to include attachment of dialogue box. Not familiar with uploading after browsing and   entering attachment line.

May be that, or possibly the change button. what shows up on those screens?Don''t know if it helps, but prior to this FUNCTION disappearing, the box always came up with the last destination folder used and , visible in the slot. It could be browsed and changed at will by input selection by operator. Just a blank now.
As I stressed, it is merely curiosity driving me, as I like to know why these things happen and haven't got the knowledge to figure it out.
Would the suggestion I made in the first post be possible or permissable? Just downloading and RUNNING Windows Media Player over the one already installed?
Would that fix it or wreck it?
I did try System Restore but got nowhere. Thanks for your interest.Re-installi9ng it won't hurt it...

Remembering last folder used is native Windows behaviour.Thank you again. Will give it a burl. HA burl ? ?

Heee hee... Sorry, you will have to forgive my Octogenarian Aussie slang. Means.....give it a go.
Conversely, you can go for a burl on your motorbike. (Trip) Not in common use nowadays
Cheers
HExcellent...
I'll add it to my Vocabulary...
