Since yesterday a refresh will read the correct directory with the correct number of MP3 files but when finished nothing displays in any column. The problem occurred at the end of a long session of manually updating tags to align details with playlists in Spotify. Nothing was synched or downloaded that I was aware of. V3.35.1 was installed this morning. Files, Apps and PC have been closed, reopened and rebooted. The files show tags in Windows and play with Media Player.

I checked options tags and the read are showing v1, v2, and APE. Looked through the forums no luck on how to fix. Not sure how to tell what kind of tags they are but I was pretty sure they…
