HELP! WMP9 Sorting Issues!!! ???

[Petdevils]

Dear Genius,

I am writing to you inthe hope you can help me with my
lil problem, i thank you in advance.

I would like to know how to permanently change some of
the WMP9 defaults (and have the option to change back
later if possible), below is a list of issues i would
like to resolve:

1) I want WMP9 to always load up showing ALL MEDIA mode..
everytime.
2) Assuming the former, i want the file sorting to be
permanently fixed so in ALL MEDIA mode, showing all
tracks sorted by Artist Name from A-Z, Track numbers in
order of 1-x descending and albums etc all together in
order. Currently MS has some bizarre sorting system so
that everytime i play a track and then change track it
resets back to its default sorting system which makes
absolutely noooo sense at all. It is annoying as hell
having to resort the entire thing every time i want to
change tracks as i have 1000's of trax, it takes a while
and i have to resort multiple times to get everything
normal again. This is the biggest request i need.
3) Assuming the former, i want to be able to choose which
Music Info shows up as default... for example i want
tracks to show up, bit rate etc, and i DO NOT want Media
Info, Genre, Rating and junk like that to show up EVER...

4) As i said i would like to have these changes permanent
with option to reverse decisions.. but essentially i want
to make my own defaults to load permanently as i have
written. I know many many other people who are driven
crazy by this and truly hope someone can help me out...
thank you and feel free to email me with a reply and post
here for others...cheers.

1-
http://www.nwlink.com/~zachd/pss/pss.html#commandline
lists how to open WMP in the Media Library.
2- I don't believe that's supported. You could probably figure out a way if
you sat around with it long enough.
3- Right-click on the columns in the Media Library - you can choose which
ones show up.

Can you select which columns show up?
Do they stick once they're shown?

What further issue are you having?
