Windows 10: WMP not showing album pictures

Earlier today i burned a cd with wmp and it went fine, then i put all that music on to a flash drive which removed it from wmp. But when i went to add more music to wmp, the new music's album covers wouldn't show up and all of the songs were. It clumped into tame album so i cant change the album art

PICTURES ALBUM

Hi David,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

1) Where have you saved the photo album in PC? Have you saved in local drive?

2) Did you check in Recycle bin?

As a workaround, Try to create a new folder and create a photo album and then save it on desktop or pictures folder in this PC.

If the issue persists, then try to create a new local account and check the issue in that account.

I suggest you to create a new user account and check if it fixes the issue. Refer to the steps below to create a new User Account:

• Go to Settings.
• Choose Accounts and then select Other User Accounts towards the left.
• Select Add an Account.
• Enter a user name and hit Next.
• Click on Finish.
• Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
• Check if issue persists.

Please reply to us with the status of the issue.

Thanks.

 

Groove Shows Unknown Artist & Unknown Album

I've never found this thread because, while annoying that Groove doesn't seem to be able to handle this, Windows Media Player can. In WMP I just right-click on the 'unknown album' and choose 'Find album info'. I then get all track listings along with album artwork, which both WMP and Groove now display.

 

Update KB4462919 causes album art loss in wmp

After installing October 24, 2018—KB4462933 (OS Build 17134.376) (which did not list the security update relating to wmp from above mentioned update) A reset of the wmp library was performed.

The album art did appear normally but again disappeared as soon as I did anything in wmp. Like switching from artist to album etc.

Disappointed, but not deterred. Stay tuned.

Update KB4462919 Has It's issues. This is one of them!
