Groove Music Not Finding Music

Archived

Itunes hasn't used DRM protection in years and these songs are ones I own not in the cloud, rented or anything like that. The songs that do not show up in Groove mobile are also under all different categories, some from CD rips, some purchased from itunes, some were even purchased from Groove/Xbox music and even songs from mixtapes or created by myself (I'm a music producer).

First, make sure you have indexing turned on and that your music folder is actually added to Grooves library.

Groove Music Can't Play Error

Not

Solution that worked for me:

  1. Open Groove Music

  2. Open Task Manager >> More Details

  3. Right-click 'Groove Music' under 'Processes' tab and 'Go to details'

  4. This should bring you to 'Details' tab and highlight 'WWAHost.exe'

  5. Right-click 'WWAHost.exe' and 'end task'

  6. Launch 'Groove Music' app and within a few seconds it should start adding new music to your library!

I had all that and mp3s I was adding and purchasing on Amazon were not showing up for the last month in Groove when I was adding them straight to my user/music folder. This persisted through the last few builds and into the RTM. I tried looking for a solution but MS reps only gave the bottled answers listed above about Indexing and making sure your library is added, including running scans to fix any problems. None of that worked.
