  1. My Windows User Account only launches Groove Music


    I have two user accounts in my computer. The first one is an administrator account that i usually use and the other is a standard account i sometimes login to. I haven't logged into the standard account for few months now. Today, when i tried to login to this user account it only opens groove music. No desktop, no start button, nothing at all. I can't close groove music. i can't use keyboard shortcuts to open the taskbar, start, taskview, etc. i couldn't even logout. i had to force close my computer in order to use my other account. But groove music functions correctly and plays music. What is causing this?

    :)

  2. 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.

    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)

    My Windows User Account only launches Groove Music

    My music wont go to groove

    Hi,

    When you add your favorite songs in OneDrive Music folder, it should appear in your Groove collection. Let's start to troubleshoot this issue by following the steps below:

    • Launch Internet Explorer and open an InPrivate Session.
    • Go to Groove and sign in with your Microsoft account.
    • Select In OneDrive and look for your music.
    • If it doesn't appear, wait for about 5 minutes for your music to be synced to OneDrive.
    • Refresh the page. Your music should now appear.

    Keep us updated if you need further assistance.
