I am using MusicBee to manage my musics and sync with a music player.
My sync configure is keeping file name.
I have 2 music libaryies.
The path of library No.1 is like "/c/MyDocument/Music/".
And path of No.2 is like "/c/SteamLibrary/steamapp/music".
When synchronizing a playlist using musics only in library No.1, MusicBee copies file to "/ArtistA/..." in player.
But after it, when synchronizing playlists using musics in library No.1 and No.2, MusicBee copies file to "/c/MyDocument/Music/ArtistA/..." in player.
So, music files are copied duplicately.
OS: Windows10 HOME 21H1 19043.1384
MusicBee: version 3.4.7805 Store

I can think of two things to try.
1- Get rid of the Store version and use the Installer or Portable versions. If using the Portable, place it in a directory outside of Windows control. Something like C:\MusicBee.
2- Instead of using two libraries, use filters. If you're not familiar with filters, check the Wiki (there's a link in my signature.)

I have tried MusicBee Portable Edition.
But your method did not solve the problem.
I am not talking about Windows path, but player path (like Android Phone).
After my steps, there are duplicated files in my player.
For example, "/SD/Music/AlbumA/musicA.mp3" and "/SD/MyDocument/Music/ArtistA/AlbumA/musica.mp3" is same music files in my player.n
I think it would be nice and kind to delete one of them (or move when synchronizing).

Musicbee is doing what you've told it to do.
You need to check "delete files that are not on the auto-sync list from the device" after you change things that would alter the path to which files are being synchronized if you want the files deleted.

Great!
The way you taught does work well.
Thanks you :)
