I suspect this may have been discussed before but I couldn't find it. Sorry it it has.

I'm a new MusicBee user. MusicBee is on my laptop. My music is all in a folder (and subfolders) located on a home network drive. In addition to being able to access the network drive as \\computername\sharename, I have also mapped it as a drive, let's call it, drive M:

In MusicBee, every track shows up twice. If I right click on the tracks and Search | Locate in Windows Explorer, one opens in an Explorer Window for M:. The other, in an Explorer Window for \\computername\sharename.

I do't know why it's doing this, but I suspect its' something I did when setting up MusicBee. Any suggestions on how to fix it. even if it involves wiping out my MusicBee installation and reinstalling it clean.

1st check you your monitored folders. then try to add 'url' column to main view and sort by it, then select all undesired tracks and remove them from library.

Thank you!

Yes, when I set up, I pointed my library to the network address but monitored the mapped drive. I used your solution and it worked like a charm!
