Playlists in Windows Media Player contain information about a specific group of songs that you have added to a list. If you have created a particularly good playlist, you might want to transfer it to a different computer. You can do so by copying the playlist file from the computer on which it was created to removable media (such as a flash drive or an external hard drive) and then pasting it into the appropriate folder on the new computer.
