My WinAmp main window has more or less gone missing, so I only see the menus and the bar at the top



I can doubleclick at turn it into a normal compact main window, but it comes back to this when doubleclicking again. I have tried changing skins and reinstalling but it does nothing..

Any ideas?

does this problem only occur with Winamp program?

i don't use the Winamp myself so i don't know whether or not it has a user setting to change the behavior via GUI and the setting is saved in a configuration setting file, or via a hidden registry setting.

however if this does only happen with the Winamp, you can try removing it via Add/Remove, then after that go to \Program Files and delete any left over Winamp's program files, and then go to the \Application Data which located in %SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\%UserName% (or for Vista go to %SystemDrive%\Users\%UserName%\AppData) and delete any left over Winamp's user setting files.

also IF you know how to edit registry, then locate the left over Winamp registry entries,
on the first try, you may only want to delete any Winamp's entries under the ...\SOFTWARE registry subkey.
otherwise, on this first try, you can leave the registry alone.

then once you have done with the above, reinstall the Winamp program and see if this helps.

yeah, this happened to me too. do what PaJr said, you have to remove all traces of winamp completely and utterly , then install it from scratch again

Yeah, I pretty sure that will help - I was just hoping for an easy solution (sooo many things to set up on a fresh install of winamp!)

Thanks anyway!
