How to Add Video Folders in Windows Media Player
You add video folders in Windows Media Player to include all your video files in one central library.
Open Windows Media Player and navigate to Video library on the left. Click the Add folder button and select your desired folder. Click Add this folder to Videos to add it to your library.
Windows Media Player is the built-in application on Windows 11 designed to manage your videos, music, and images, making it easy to keep your media organized.
By default, Windows Media Player scans your main “Videos” folder, but you must manually add other locations where you store video files.
Adding a folder ensures all videos within that specific location automatically appear in your Windows Media Player library, so you can access them quickly without searching your entire PC.
