I have a hard time finding my file in WMP, & think I am doing it out of order. After music recording, should I be importing first, then exporting? 2.4.2

:smiley: Yes, I don’t suppose you are the only one. :wink:

So on Audacity, I made a short recording, then did FIle > Export > Export As Mp3. Then I specified my file name and saved the file to the desktop. In Windows, I located the file on the Desktop (Windows-D), right-clicked the file, then “Open with” > “WIndows Media Player”. WMP then immediately played my file.

For additional information on WMP, do a Google search or see here: Windows Media Player - Microsoft Support

I hope this helps. :smiley:
