Why does it say no music files found?

If you’re seeing a “no music files found” message, it could be due to several reasons. 

Incorrect Directory: The software or application might be searching the wrong directory or drive. Double-check the path where it’s looking for music files.

File Format Issues: Ensure that the music files are in a format supported by the application. Some apps might not recognize certain file types.

File Corruption: If the music files are corrupted or incomplete, they might not be detected. Try playing the files with another media player to verify their integrity.

Hidden Files: In some cases, files might be hidden. Ensure that the application is set to show hidden files.

Permissions: The application might not have the necessary permissions to access the directory where the music files are stored. Check the permissions settings.

Search Settings: Check the search settings or filters within the application. They might be set too restrictively.

Indexing Issues: Sometimes, files might not show up due to indexing problems within the software. Rebuilding or refreshing the index could help.
