After some time of consideration I decided that a Sony NWZ-S765 is going to replace my broken mp3 player. One main aspect was that the player supports playlists which can be managed with audio software like Winamp so I could use my regular audio player.
The problem
Tech support scams are an industry-wide issue where scammers trick you into paying for unnecessary technical support services. You can help protect yourself from scammers by verifying that the contact is a Microsoft Agent or Microsoft Employee and that the phone number is an official Microsoft global customer service number. Rejected Online Services - The online service was found to be un-acceptable and is not available in the Winamp Gallery. Managing your Online Service with 'My Profile' Once your online service has been published, there are several things you can do to manage it through the My Profile page. Winamp has stopped working properly. A newer version of Winamp is available for download that might solve this problem.

On my laptop managing playlists with Winamp worked as expected. Everything fine so far. But when I wanted to configure the player from the Winamp installation on my desktop PC it simply didn’t recognize the player and even updating Winamp changed nothing.
The solution
After I checked that the versions of Winamp on my laptop and PC were the same I had a look at the installed plug-ins. For whatever reason there were some plug-ins missing in the portable devices category on my PC although they belong to the default installation of the current release. So I simply copied the missing plug-ins from the Plugins
subdirectory of Winamp’s installation directory from my laptop and finally everything worked fine.
