I routinely use Maintain Library with full optimization. There is just no logic to what is happening. I am using Ver.4.1.1.1703 on both machines.
In looking for a solution I added 1 album to the MusikDownloads folder. I used Add/Rescan to add that specific folder to the Library just as downloaded ie before editing the tags. In Entire Library it was added to the total number of files, but in the Location node the MusikDownloads Folder was not shown. In the Music collection again the files were added to the total number of files but the MusikDownloads folder was not in the Location node. In both the Entire Collection and the Music collection the files were in the Album and Composer nodes.
In desperation I removed ALL files from the library (manually, not by clearing the Database) and rescanned only the MusikDownloads folder. Entire Library now shows the correct number of files in the folder but when I open the Location node it only shows the drive (c:) All and LTMusikDB (the main database location). Clicking on All shows that there are no files. All the other nodes (artist, Album Artist, Composer etc) show the correct number of files. The Music collection shows the correct number of files but nothing in the Location node but the correct number of files in Artist, Composer etc.
As the tags in these files are unedited ie as downloaded, all the albums do not show up in the different nodes but that is due to the tagging.
What I do not understand is why the files are recorded as present in Entire Library (by number) and the Music collection but do not show up in the location node.
I backed up the "empty" library in the hope that clearing the .ini and Data Base Files would resolve the problem but it has not.
