While manipulating the RealPlayer 'My Library' feature, you may add multimedia files to your queue that you accidentally remove later from your computer. Perhaps a multimedia file has grown old, or you might later need to remove some files to save hard disk space. If this happens, your Library may contain links to files that no longer exist.

Instead of manually purging these files from your Library, simply select "Tools" - "Remove Missing Media". This will only purge links to these files from your Library; no files will be removed from your computer during this process. Click "OK" to confirm the dialog box that follows. When done, RealPlayer will alert you to how many links have been removed.
