Library is not loading at start up
This has been a problem off and on ever since I've started using MM5. At start up the library seems to lose the drive letter, Please do not blame this on my computer as you have in the past.. No other program I have ever used has done this, including MM4. As you can see I changed the settings to search out the library when I turn the program on but it takes too long. I shouldn't have to do this at all. I shouldn't have to wait twenty minutes to listen to music.

Re: Library is not loading at start up
What drive (internal, external, mapped, network) are the files stored on? This normally happens when Windows assigns a different driveID to the drive (which it shouldn't).
A fix when this happens should be easy, however this shouldn't happen unless you change drive/PC.

Collections are nodes like Music, Classical Music, Podcasts, etc. So, you'd use Music > Location > drive for example.

So its Music>Location left click. Great now how do I add the forward slash? Right clicking on media properties shows it pointed to the right spot

Re: Library is not loading at start up
It's only needed if a drive letter isn't shown for the files.

Re: Library is not loading at start up
This is getting to be a real pain, I'm literally having to reload my library every time I turn the program on. This shouldn't be happening. I keep my library in the same spot and Windows is not changing the serial number of the drive. It says it's pointed to the right place. What gives? I literally have to wait over a half hour every time I want to listen to music. I getting to the point where I am wanting to explore alternatives. This is hard because I've been using MM for well over a decade.

Re: Library is not loading at start up
This clearly shouldn't happen. Please capture this in a debug log (step 4b) and attach the log to a Support Ticket: viewtopic.php?t=86643
This will help a developer analyze why this happens on your setup.
After doing the log, disable Folder Monitoring and re-assign drive when this happens till a solution for the problem is found.
