MediaMonkey forum

I have installed MM on a win 8.1 desktop - I am operating it from the desktop (no metro).
The music files are in a partition on the hard drive.


When MM scans for music files, all files found are greyed out and unplayable.
But if I open a single file, it shows it in black and plays fine.
So I don't think it is any kind of sound system issue.

No difference when I tried a portable install,
No difference after clean reinstall after removing all components per instructions on completely removing MM.
No difference running in windows 7 compatibility mode.
Album art is shown, even though all songs are greyed out.

Foobar scans the same directories and finds and plays all files.

Any ideas?

Solved it! The Hard drive partition holding the music files is drive "B".

Went into MediaMonkeys ini file and found ignoredrive = AB, removed the "B"

Now it finds the files...

Thank you for posting this, I just solved my problem with this.

Thanks! I have an A:\ drive and I could not for the life of me figure out why every time I imported music it was greyed out. Huge help!
