SP 50958: The “Add to” options for Windows Media Player are missing in the context menu

Symptom: When you right click on a media file (such as .wma, .mp3, .avi), the context menu no longer lists the “Add to” options that allow the user to add the file to either a play list, sync list, or burn list in Windows Media Player. You may also find that when you double-click the media file, the “Open with” dialog is displayed.
Resolution: This change will examine the system registry and modify the settings to restore the “Add to” options in the context menu.
