Use the General Preferences window to configure basic FreeAmp settings such as where to save your music collection, what types of files playback in FreeAmp, and if FreeAmp stays on top of other applications during playback.
Save Music Folder sets the location of the folder to save your music collection. Each time you use the Music Search button or download music, FreeAmp automatically saves your music in this folder. Use the Browse button to change the location of the folder to save your music.
File Associations
When you install an MP3 player on your computer, it associates certain filetypes (such as .mp3, .m3u, .pls) with that player. When you open a music file by double clicking on it, the player associated with that filetype automatically opens.
If you have more than one MP3 player installed on your computer, each player may have specific filetypes associated with it. Since a filetype can only be associated with one player at any given time, FreeAmp gives you the opportunity to configure what player should play a music file when you open it.
Reclaim stolen filetypes when application starts tells FreeAmp to open when you double-click on a music file.
Ask Before reclaiming filetypes confirms that you want FreeAmp to open and ask you if it should play a specific file, if the file is associated with another MP3 player on your computer.
