Questions / How do I update 3.4.xxxx PORTABLE to 3.5.xxxxx PORTABLE?

« on: January 07, 2024, 05:09:25 PM »

Previously, I would extract the zip file contents and copy the many new files and folder into my MusicBee Portable local folder.

But, the 3.5 Portable zip file only contains on file: MusicBeePortable_3_5.exe. Does this file and installer and automatically unzip its container and replace my current files? I do not want to proceed unknowingly.

I cannot find any instructions here nor is there a text file in the zip.

Questions / Why are artist thumbnails stored in 2 separate folder locations?

« on: November 15, 2019, 08:16:29 PM »

I am using the Portable Version.

Why are artist thumbnails stored in 2 separate folder locations?

"H:\OneDrive\MusicBee\AppData\InternalCache\ArtistThumbs" using 262 MB of space, all PNG's.

and

"H:\OneDrive\MusicBee\Library\Artist Pictures\Thumb" using 194 MB of space, all JPG's.

Both folders got/get populated at the same time.

This seems redundant, and is taking $pace on my cloud acct.

Is there a way to remove and disable one or the other?

It appears the MB Context Menu items no longer show in the Windows Explorer Context Menu in Windows 10 1903, MB 3.3.7165 Desktop or Start versions anymore.

It used to work, but not anymore.

Will this function be fixed or revived?

« on: December 29, 2018, 10:30:23 PM »

Hello,

Is there a procedure for saving Layout, Library settings for new or re-installations?

I have 3 different machines, and from time to time I do fresh OS installations.  I would like to not have to loose my custom layout and make it easy to setup again.

Thanks!
