Suppose I Use A Different Laptop?
My concern is, I work hard in maintaining a 60,000+ track database which is based from locating tracks and adding them to my external drive. MediaMonkey is using this external hard-drive to set up. However, whatever changes I make to MediaMonkey's application doesn't reflect on the external. If I should ever have to replace my laptop, which is evident I will someday, I will have to reload MediaMonkey and use the same external hard-drive but all the work is lost! Would hardly seem worthwhile awaiting the inevitable. How can I ensure whatever I'm doing with tracks is saved somewhere so if I do find it necessary the appearance of MediaMonkey is the same wherever I go? I sometimes use the PnP function with my android phone, which is nice but not often but it, too, is based on the app. In other words, if there is a track I don't like on an album, I delete the track from the MediaMonkey app but that doesn't mean the track is gone from the external hard-drive. If I had data in a note in the "Comment" section, that's nowhere to be found on my external hard-drive. Would I loose that, too? I hope someone has figured out a way to avoid having to redo everything simply because they decided to upgrade laptops.

By default MediaMonkey saves most tag changes to the files: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index. ... erties/4.0
And you can backup the database: https://www.mediamonkey.com/support/ind ... ey-library which contains all tags and playlists
Deletions in MMA are not synced to MMW, deletions in MMW can be synced to MMA.
