Re: Library not finding all songs

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance


A: Did you try renaming the Folder or just deleting the database? It's pretty key to *rename* the folder not just delete the database as otherwise you do not reset the library cache.
B: If you drag and drop the folder on the player, does it find them all?

I've got something on the order of 5000 songs, but WMP is only finding 1611
of them. I've tried deleting the database file as suggested in Mircrosoft's
help article, but it still only finds the same number. I've had my collection
on a different computer and WMP had no problems. The player will play the
files fine, but won't add them to the library consistently. Any thoughts?
