    I have some music in a folder (One album 11 tracks) but there is also one file there with an extension of m3u.

    This .m3u file when double clicked automatically plays all the tunes in order.

    My questions are,

    How does that m3u file get created?

    Has it something to do with Media Player play lists?

    Can I take a particular batch pf .MP3 files & create a m3u file to play them in a certain order or what?
