Well, after it is uninstalled, there is a Winamp folder located in the programs folder on your c drive. Delete that folder and then re-install whatever version of Winamp it was that you last installed. now that part I can't exactly help you with because I don't know what version you're using and I have no way of knowing where it is on your computer. But, the file to look for is something alng the lines of winamp532_full.exe or something similar to that. if you didn't save the instalation file, it's always available at old version.com, orthe latest version can also be found at the whitestick.co.uk website.

Hi Bud

Let me ask you, when you hit control plus p for the preferences, what happens? do you get some kind of error message, or nothing at all? and are you absolutely sure that you are focused in the main Winamp window when atempting to do this? sometimes if you're in other windows of Winamp it doesn't work the way you think it should. So if you can tell us what happens we might be able to help. this is a Winamp hot key, it doesn't have to do anything with your screenreader. i have a feeling that a simple uninstall and re-install will help, but the problem is to make it a clean install you have to uninstall the program, back up any bookmarks you have, find out where the install file is for the latest version and re-install that. Sometimes that's just too damn much work for some folks.

Good luck though.
