I'm sorry, I have another stupid question about Windows Media Player

[Butter!]

My Windows Media player just started doing something weird and I can't figure out why. Typically, when I click on a song to play it, it will continue to play through all the other songs that are open at the time. So if I type in "Jazz," all my songs and albums tagged as jazz will fill the window. Then, if I click on one, all the rest are automatically added to the playlist.

Now, for some reason I can't fathom, when I click on a song no matter how many others are in the window it only adds just that one song to the playlist and stops playing after that. I can't figure out what the heck I did. But I must have done it recently, because earlier today I was listening to music and everything was working fine.

I'm dumb.

Been a little while since I played with WMP. But, I remember there being two types of playlists, regular and "auto". The Auto playlist would automatically build/update based on input from you - like tags to use to build the playlist, for instance.

So, my guess is you were using an auto playlist before, but are now working with a regular playlist.

ETA: This may be useful in explaining how it works
