Songs gray out

[ecoli6667]

I Just started MediaMonkey today and when I try to play a song they all start to gray out. I will eventually get a message about a missing codec and the link takes me to something for quick-time. I can play the same song in Windows Media Player or VLC player. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Media Monkey with same issue. I searched around and some people said Windows Media pack needs to be updated. Win 10 ver 1909 I dont seem the ave that in my apps and features, and cant seem to find a download for the 1909 version. Also, my default player was Groove when started today. I changed it to Mediamonkey but it still didnt help.

Which File Type(s) are affected?

I had that happen to all my 5 star AAC's when I tried transcoding them to MP3, (copy to, not convert to)... trashed all of them. I backed out the version of MM and the MM_Codec and reinstalled an older version, but the damage was done. Had to restore all of them from either backup or re-download from iTunes. To the best of my testing the latest version and newest Codec don't seem to cause any problems. Your mileage my vary.

Copying files doesn't convert them, what version of MediaMonkey and Codec?
