Windows Forum / Windows XP / Movie Maker / October 2007MEDIATAB.DAT file corrupted ?
Help please. Suddenly all my collections have disappeared and my wmm2 is unable to create any other collection. I can still open all the mswmm files i've previously created but if i try to drag a pics or a videoclip in a new project i always get a message of 'unknow error' and the program crash. Filters and transition works fine but i cannot add nothing. I've tried to open the file mediatab.dat but then wmm says is not a valid file. thanks in advance Have you just done something to your computer? Added a programme? Deleted one? Run a spyware type app? Done any other type of cleaning? Suffered power failure? Have you tried using system restore back to when it did work?

It only seems a problem of recognizing the MEDIATAB.DAT file. I was wondering if i can dowloading it somewhere and try to replace it. > Have you just done something to your computer? > Added a programme?

There are a number of things that could lead to it being corrupt, and once corrupt it's not a fixiable file. you don't need to download a new one. delete it and Movie Maker will create a new one with no clips or collection folders in it. See my website's Manage Your Files > Collections page for info about where it is.
