Title: Some MP3 files are not detected while scanning library folder
Post by: Rayco_46 on March 06, 2021, 10:43:59

Hi everyone,
Some of my mp3 files are not "seen" by AIMP when it scans my library folder. For example, it found 139000 files, as Windows found 139247 files (*.mp3) at the same time in the same folder. So, I am not able to find which files are missing in the AIMP library (too many files, impossible to compare easily...).
Any way to help me to find the "ghost files" ?
Thank you !

Maybe some files or folders have a system attribute (https://www.aimp.ru/forum/index.php?topic=65296.msg410059#msg410059)?
Go to your library folder, Shift+RightClick > Open command window here, enter the command:

Code: (system mp3) [Select]

DIR .\*.mp3 /A:S /S /B > system_mp3.txtor

Code: (system folders) [Select]

DIR /A:SD /S /B > system_folders.txt Wait for the list to be created.

Well done ! There were two system folders. After "attrib -s" dos command, it works fine.
Many thanks !!
