SYMPTOMSWhen 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 RESOLUTIONWhile you are running the SysPrep tool, delete the following registry
key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences\CDRecordPath The next time that Windows Media Player starts, because the key no longer
exists, the player uses the default path. STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section of this article.MORE INFORMATIONThis issue may also affect the Copy To location for Microsoft Windows Movie
Maker.
