  2. Album Artwork and Artist Artwork in Groove Music

    Groove Music doesn't recognize some of the music I've uploaded from OneDrive and hasn't given it the appropriate album artwork or artist artwork. Most of these are well known artists and albums which are in the Windows Store (i.e. Dean Martin, Adele, etc.)
    so I'm not sure why it isn't recognizing them. I've also made sure the genre, year, etc all match the information in the Store app but Groove still doesn't recognize...

    Is there a way to manually add album artwork in Groove?

    New Groove music in windows 11 does not recognize artist/album/genre

    Groove Shows Unknown Artist & Unknown Album


    I solved it by doing the following! I'm not sure which step cracked the problem.


    1. Set indexing to index the content of my music files by right clicking on the top level folder, setting the option and applying to all files and sub-folders
    2. Rebuilt the index via the Control Panel Indexing options
    3. Deleted the folders watched in Groove
    4. Deleted the Groove database at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.ZuneMusic_<random>\LocalState\Database
    5. Started Groove
    6. Reassigned the folders to watch

    All songs now appear with the right artist & album but some album art was missing in Groove and Media Player despite being displayed correctly in iTunes. I manually updated the missing album art in Media Player and Groove then synchronised to match the Media Player album art.
