Question about 'How do I reset the Windows Media Player video cache?'

I have a question about How do I reset the Windows Media Player video cache?:

There is a 70 meg mpg I have burned on a cd. I redownloaded a smaller version of the same file (it was cut short), and now windows media player only plays the first 46 second of the 9 minute movie (even when read from the full file on the cd, or a copied version from the cd to the hard drive). I tried renaming the file, as well as deleting the index file that the article says to. Does anyone know how to make me able to see the whole movie? Thanks.

Taken from NTfaq

1) Open My Computer from the desktop. 
2) Navigate to \%allusersprofile%\application data\microsoft\media index (e.g., C:\documents 
and settings\all users\application data\microsoft\media index). 
3) Delete the wmplibrary_v_0_12.db file.

I have the same problem for Windows XP. My videos all have the wrong time index. What do I do? I cannot find the "wmplibrary" file.

I'm having the same problem (can't find the wmplibrary_v_o_12.db file) . There is NO "applicationdata" folder inside my "allusers" folder, nor can I find the wmplibrary file in my Windows folder. Whassup with that?!
