Groove Music not finding local files

I never removed and re-added my music folder in Groove but unchecked the folders read only properties, it did its thing, and remarked read only; but restarted the Groove program and started to add the music seemingly fine. 

So I am guessing I will have to do the same thing for my Amazon and general PC music folders if the albums that I haven't moved from there are not listed

So starting to look like one issue down from this migration down.

Thanks for the folder properties suggestion.

**** solution?*****

I got groove music to identify the music by sharing it with myself, and generally messing with the sharing settings on the files. Sorry I cant be more specific. good luck all.

however Cortana still can play any songs.

me: hey Cortana... play a song (or play music, ect)

her: ok cueing up your music .... somethings not right (or something went wrong, ect)

ive seen the little player pop up on occasion but it immediately shuts down.

You know it's funny the same thing happened to me. I changed the settings, added the folder to grove, changed the settings again, then changed iTunes to run as an administrator (completely unrelated task) and then wala - it found the files. I have no idea why.  Checked again and it shows that the file is read-only now, but it is still finding the files. Go figure, makes no sense whatsoever.

yea I've tried this but its not working. I unchecked the box, and it'll apply the changes to all the subfolders as well, but the moment I click okay and reopen the same folder properties, its checked again. I've tried moving the music elsewhere and unchecked the box, same thing happens, it checks the box itself again.

OK figured it out, you have to right click your music folder and change uncheck the box "read only". This should make it work!
