    Yes, your music files are not stored in WMP, they're stored under My Documents, My Music, or wherever you chose to put them on your hard drive.
    Removing WMP will prevent you playing them, but the files remain where they are.

    Yes, but if it's malfunctioning, updating it may not solve the issue.
