Windows 10: Photos app collection empty

This has been happening all month and can’t seem to fix it. In the photos app I usually add my folders from where my photos are stored and I would see them all. Now after adding my sources in the collection it just says “see all your memories in one place” like the folders are not being read. Even the default pictures folder which has photos in it is not being seen in the photos app collection, I’ve been adding and removing sources but nothing’s happening. Also reset the app, uninstalled and reinstalled, same thing. I’m running the latest insider build in the fast ring.
