Windows 10: Media Player caused dup copies of music library.

Used Media Player Ver 11.2212.31.0 on Win10 PC to rip and tag music. It produced dup copies of music library. I had made changes in Med Player file locations options. Why did this happen? Can I delete the extra libraries? Where did MusicBrainz CD file come from and where is it in my PC.

How do I stop Media Player from adding OneDrive Music to the library

Thanks for the suggestion but it didn't work. After receiving your reply, I performed the steps as you suggested. That was two days ago. Yesterday, when I checked, OneDrive\Music was still
not in the library. Today, different story. OneDrive\Music is again included in the library and Media Player is now updating the library and producing two copies of everything to me. Not only that but since I had
the OneDrive Music folder set to not take up space on my local hard drive, Media Player has begun to download everything from the Cloud and I now have two copies of the files on my PC. That equates to 43 GB of music and artwork doubled. Kind of a waste of
space. Blocking the app has no effect. It just keeps restarting. I suspect it is because it isn't a Windows Store App.

 

Can not add Music album from Music library of computer to Media Player files

I have a few Albums stored in my Computers Music Library. I want to copy one particular album (the album has about 7 files - i.e. 7 music tracks) to
Windows Media Player album Library. When I right click on the album in the Computer's music library, one of the options is to
PLAY with windows media player - but another option is to
ADD to Windows Media Player List......but when I choose the later (ADD to list) all that happens is that the album starts to
play - but does not get added to the Media Player album list. How do I overcome this problem. I am running Windows 7.
