DRM folder location for pocket WMP?

npaulseth · #1 (**permalink**) 07-04-2009, 03:00 AM

I have around 100 songs or so that I have purchased through the Sprint music store that are all DRM protected. I use Sprite backup fortunatley which backs up everything on my phone. I recently had to hard reset my phone, and after it was back up I tried to play some of my music only to find out that I no longer had the "license" to the song anymore. Well, after I restored my phone with Sprite, everything worked great again. This leads me to believe that there is a folder somewhere on my device, not memory card, that contains all of my DRM information for the songs that I have purchased. I cannot seem to figure out where this folder is though.

Any help?

On your storage card under my music.

I know it's not on my storage card due to the fact that I have a couple songs that are stored on my device memory that play fine without the storage card in the device. Also, I don't have a "my music" folder on my storage card, but I do under "my documents" on my device. However, it's empty.

Huh...what device are you using?
I thought you couldn't download/buy songs from sprint unless you used the storage card!?

I just checked mine and all my sprint music downloads are on my storage card in a folder called music. Sorry, my bad.

It probably doesn't show in WinMo File Explorer. Look for a folder called WMDRM. Such a folder occasionally shows up on my storage card when I pull it from phone and put into USB on desktop PC. Since I avoid DRM'd files like a plague, I just delete WMDRM and it's damnable contents. There's too much good music easily available w/out DRM.
