Hidden folders and their content are ignored by MediaMonkey.

You may have issues that MM crashes rather than closes, because the settings are saved when the program is closed. Generate a debug log as described in section 4. b. "For functional problems": http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=69

Working on the log now....

Also Would it matter if the Folder I'm trying to have scanned continuously is within a hidden folder on my C: drive? (but the folder with the music inst hidden itself)
Yeah, probably.

If your tracks already play and there are no dead links then don't worry about it.

So I guess the problem is that when you check some folder to scan at File > Add/rescan it doesn't remember the setting after a restart?

Yes the tracks in my library currently play. Upon me first adding/scanning the new harddrive location they were added to the database. and still play and also sync with my iPhone


I dont think I've updated the database with the new drive... How do I do that?

Previously I had all of my media on a different harddrive partition (Drive letter M:) when I reinstalled I made sure that I set the drive path with my media to Drive M:

How Do I Reset my Media monkey without deleting my Database?

I recently reformatted my computer. (Windows 7) basically I backed up my entire %appdata%/Roaming/MediaMonkey folder from the system before formatting.

and then I put the exact folder back into the location when I reinstalled.

My real issue now is:
I added a new hard-drive and when I try to add a new location for MM to find/scan a folder continuously and on start up... the folder location is removed when I restart.(But it still shows previously scanned tracks in my library... it just doesnt update)

How can I solve this issue?
