Locating missing files in Music

Is there any quick way to locate all files in Music that have an exclamation mark by them?


Music is telling me that it couldn't find 5 files but I have a very large music collection and sifting through every song to find the ones with exclamation marks is not going to be an enjoyable task. If there's a quicker way to do it than looking through all my songs that'd be amazing.


I'm on Monterey 12.6.1

Mac Studio, macOS 12.6

Lost & Found Playlists

Create a playlist called Found, select everything in the Songs view (cmd+A) and drag it into the Found playlist. Create a smart playlist called Lost with the rule Playlist is not Found. Your lost tracks will be in this playlist.
