    Music Library "Arrange By" function is empty


    Hello,

    I have this weird problem with my music library folder.
    When I select any parameter on the "Arrange By" function, it returns that the folder is empty.
    The problem is, that I have over 7000 mp3 files in the folder, and it doesn't sort by Album for example.

    How can I fix this?

    :)

  2. WMP 12 in Windows 10

    I have recently upgraded to Windows 10, but my music library is empty in WMP 12. I have deleted the library database, changed music locations and added into "organize" and still no listing in the library. Can anyone suggest how I can get my library back
    and hence play music in WMP 12?

    This is a support forum, not a complaints department.

    I suggest you directly submit your complaints about hardware to Nokia and software to Microsoft.



    Also it often helps to read reviews when switching platforms to make sure it suits your needs. From what you've said the Lumia 820 clearly doesn't suit you.

    "When I select any parameter on the "Arrange By" function, it returns that the folder is empty."

    Mine works fine when I arrange by Album. You have the same columns in your Music folder that I do but I never use the preview pane. Can't you just sort by clicking the Album column which will put them in alpha order or use the Search box if you're looking for a particular one ? What happens if you do this in the This PC/Music folder vs the Library/Music ?

    When I open the folder from This PC, it doesn't show the Arrange By function. So I can't use it there.

    The libraries link may be messed up. Try browsing to C:\Users\[UserName]\Music\Songs does the same thing happen?

    In this path, the Arrange By function isn't an option.
    So no *Sad
