    Music Metadata grabber

    Been working on sorting movies/tv shows/music and looking for something thats free and grabs metadata for my music files. I could do it all manually, but having something that helps would be nice. Anyone got a suggestion?

    Groove music cannot find restored music files.

    Hi,

    I realize that Groove music cannot find restored music files. I will try to help you with this issue.


    • Are you able to play those files in Windows Media Player?

    You will be able to solve some problems by running a troubleshooter that will automatically fix some common issues with Windows Store Apps. Once this is done check the status.

    Open the Windows Store Apps troubleshooter by following these steps:


    • Press Windows key + X and click on
      Control Panel.

    • Click on Troubleshooting and click on
      View All.

    Click on “Windows Store Apps” troubleshooter to fix problems with Windows Store Apps. Follow the on-screen directions to run this troubleshooter and restart the computer to check if this helps.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    music files with an X on them

    Music

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your concern here in Microsoft Community and welcome to the Windows 10 Family. I would be happy to assist you.

    I would suggest you to place the music files in the Music folder under My Documents in the same drive where the Operating System is installed for the Music App to start syncing.

    However if the issue still persist, I would suggest you follow the below steps to restore the default Libraries in Windows and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Step 1 : Show the Libraries

    • Go to This PC ( Computer )
    • Click on View
    • Click on Navigation Pane
    • Check “show all folders”
    • Check “Show Libraries”
    • Do not uncheck anything that is already checked
    Step 2 : Restore Default Libraries

    • Now,
    • Locate your libraries in the left hand pane
    • Right Click
    • Click on Restore Default Libraries

    Hope the above information was helpful. If you need further information, feel free to write to us and we would be glad to help you.

    Thank You
