Note:

This guide assumes that you have already downloaded and installed Windows Media Player and WMPTSE.

In this guide, we will be adding an APEv2 tagging to our MediaLibrary .png files (why not...?).

The png format being a container format, our tag binary data will not be interpreted by the png readers, saving us the trouble.

But beware if you add tagging support for non-container file types (.txt, .bin, .dat, etc...), you'll end up with a [i]corrupted[i] file

Make the menu visible by pressing Alt or cliking the Show menu bar button (or WMP v11.0 only, right click in WMP window)

Tools menu

Tools->Plug-ins menu with Option selected

In Category select Background. (if you have properly installed WMPTSE, it should be visible in the list on the right)

Tools->Background plug-in list

On the left, select WMPTagSupportExtender Plugin(without unchecking it, click on his name) and click the Properties button
