anyhow am trying to get to file associations in Winamp as I want it to be
the player I use to play MP3s; I'm just not having any luck! Running

I'm not sure how to do this in Winamp, but another way to achieve the same result is to do a search in the start menu for file and select Choose a default App for each type of file. It might not come up in the search results, but if you select the search in settings result, it should appear. Hit enter on choose default App and tab through the resulting dialogue until you find MP3, press spacebar and in the resulting dialogue locate Winamp and select it. That should do what you want.

Hi Tom.

I'm doing this from memory on a Win 7 machine with the latest incarnation of Winamp, so please excuse me if I sell you a pup here!

With Winamp open you bring up your file menu with alt plus f. Now arrow to Options and right arrow into that and enter on Preferences.
The very top item on that tree should be labelled something like File Types, and if you go in here you should find the settings your after.

Good luck.

Darran
