The case of the disappearing mmjb.exe
each time i try to use my cd player a message comes up saying cd audio missing file mmjb.exe i have looked for this file but have been unable to find it . can you please help me

Placing an audio cd in the ROM drive results in a message "UNABLE TO LOCATE MMJB.EXE".

when i start my pc i get a box saying file mmjb missing what should i do. my cd audio player will not play cd"s.

I had Music Match on my computer and it automatically played my CDs when I popped them in. Now I deleted MusicMatch and whenver I put cds in it always looks for MMjb.exe and it isn't there.Help me point that to another Cd player program.

When installing MusicMatch Jukebox, you can specify what file formats it becomes the default player for, including audio CD format (.CDA). If you are experiencing the same problem as described in the messages above, the audio CD format (.CDA) is still associated with MusicMatch Jukebox on your computer. Almost all file formats are associated with a certain application, whether it is installed on your computer or not will determine if it can be accessed. If MusicMatch (or another CD playing application) has never been installed on your computer, Windows default CD player will automatically launch to play the CD. When you uninstall MusicMatch the association between .CDA files and the application (mmjb.exe) remains, thus causing your computer to seek out 'mmjb.exe' each time an audio CD is launched.

How to fix it

  • Within Windows Explorer, view the contents of your CD-ROM drive [right-click 'Explore']
  • You will see a list of the .CDA files on your audio CD. Right-click on a single CD track and choose 'Open With' then 'Choose Program...'
  • Click on the program within the scroll box that you want to use to play audio CDs, click the check box labeled 'Always use this program to open these files', and then click [OK] button.

The program you selected is now the default player for audio CDs and will be launched each time you insert an audio CD into your CD-ROM drive. You can use this method to change the default application for running audio CDs at any time in the future, and this can also be applied to most other file formats on your computer (as long as the program selected supports the chosen file format).
