Windows 10: Is "recent plays" in Groove Music working?

Im not seeing my recent plays from the otherday. I have lots of randomly named mp3's so this feature is very helpful when it works - any sort of history.

Groove Music Unable to Play Music

We'll try a different approach, we suggest that you reinstall Groove Music and see if it has the same issue. Follow the steps below on how to remove and reinstall Groove Music:

• Open Start menu, search for "PowerShell"
• Right-click the PowerShell shortcut and select "Run as administrator". Agree to the UAC prompt.
• Type/Copy paste Get-AppxPackage *zunemusic* | Remove-AppxPackage.
• Once that Groove Music has been uninstalled, launch Windows 10 Store.
• Type/Search for Groove Music and install.

Looking forward to your response.

 

Groove Music


My Groove music suddenly stopped playing files when I doubleclick on them (groove music launches but is blank). I can use a different player but I have to click into that player as Groove Music is my default. I am reorganizing all of my music (tens of thousands of files) and this won't work for me.
Any suggestions?
I have Windows 10 on a PC.
I found an online troubleshooting that suggesting I delete temporary files and reset Internet explorer which I did and which has not helped.
thank you
(I am also not super tech savy so laymen's instructions is appreciated)

 

Groove music not working recently

Hi Alastair,

This issue could be happened if the Groove Music app or phone's software is not updated. Before performing any workarounds, please answer the following questions:

• Which OS build version is currently running on your phone? To check, just go to
  Settings> System> About> More info.
• Are you getting an error message or code?
  
• Have you checked if there's a pending update for the Groove Music app on the Store app?
• What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?

Regards.
