Windows 10: Transferring Windows Media Player Library.........

This appears to be a common and ancient question which hasn't really ever been answered.How to transfer the Windows Media Player library that takes months if not weeks to update itself?https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/transferring-windows-media-player-library-to-new/55c12332-95b9-403b-ad5a-a29c6323a33dThis thread appears to shed some light ie it's not possible because the Library is somewhere deep within the computer and each computer needs to create it's own database of the Media. Is this correct?The other problem I see is that people are wanting their media file changes
