SYMPTOMS
When a user account that has administrative credentials logs on to a computer that has been prepared by means of the Microsoft Systems Preparation tool (SysPrep.exe) to include Windows Media Player 9 Series, the Copy To location may incorrectly point to the administrator folder:

%SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Music

instead of pointing to the user folder:

%SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\%UserName%\My Music



RESOLUTION
While you are running the SysPrep tool, delete the following registry key:

The next time that Windows Media Player starts, because the key no longer exists, the player uses the default path.
