    Messed up Libraries


    Win 10 1809

    Somehow my Libraries are messed up with duplicate folders in various different places including under Onedrive. Asking a program to open a Picture folder for example may open an empty one or the correct one. Ditto saving and after saving the file has vanished!! I tried using properties/location to reset or change but get messages that I'm not allowed access or that it doesn't exist!

    There was an option I found to reset Libraries but it made no difference. Any suggestions please?

    :)

    Duplicate Music Library Sign Windows 10

    Thank you for posting your question in Microsoft community.

    I understand your concern regarding the issue that you are facing.

    Can you check if both the folders contain all the music that you need?

    Where the original files are saved so that we can troubleshoot this issue further?

    I would suggest you try the restore library option and check if it helps. Please back up all the files in the library before trying this, just to make sure you don’t lose any files. Refer these steps:

    • Open Windows explorer
