This setting can be later changed.Īs we mentioned already, you can configure Groove to automatically download any songs you’ve already purchased on other devices. When you first attempt to make a purchase, you will be asked if you want to sign in with your password before completing purchases or managing your account. Here you see the album cover art, song, artist, and the playback controls you come to expect from a music player.Īdditionally, just as in Windows 8, if you use your keyboard’s media controls, a small control window will appear in the upper-left corner allowing you to go back, forward, and pause, as well as adjust the volume. When you play a song, the controls will appear along the bottom edge. Additionally, you can click the search icon and find anything in your collection in mere seconds. Groove lets you view you music collection by album, artist, and song. In Windows 10, there’s a new music app called Groove Music and if you’ve used any type of music-oriented application recently, then Groove should be pretty self-explanatory, but let’s take a few minutes and walk you through some of its more notable features. Sadly, WMP hasn’t been updated since Windows 7, which doesn’t mean it doesn’t work, but it’s not exactly the latest nor greatest app for playing your MP3s.
For as long we can remember, the go-to music app on Windows has been Windows Media Player (WMP).
