Windows Media Player no longer has music library

Windows 10 Windows Media Player 12

Hello.
Just turned on my computer and Windows has one album showing with 4572 songs at 0 minutes
The music in file explorer plays thru groove but no longer thru media player.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail
Updating media library has been on for a while but nothing is updating.
I would post a screenshot but don't know how here
What do i do to get my library back in WMP and have it work?

Hi Paul,

I suggest you to sync iTunes with Windows Media Player and check if it helps.

Follow the steps below to sync iTunes with Windows Media Player

• Double-click on the Windows Media Player icon.
• Right-click inside the toolbar at the top of Windows Media Player. Click "File" and "Manage Libraries."
• Right-click inside the toolbar at the top of Windows Media Player. Click "File" and "Manage Libraries."
• Click "Add." Add the library where your iTunes music is stored to Windows Media Player. This is the directory that was selected when iTunes was initially installed. Click "OK." iTunes and Windows Media Player will be synced.
