Lost itunes Playlist After Upgrade

Hello,

since a Macbook Air and software upgrade to Monterey my itunes playlist doesn't show up in Music.

I followed instructions left here by a community member whereby I open Music with the option key > select choose > select itunes.itl and type in the save as ~/Music/Music and this is where I get stuck.

When I type in ~/Music/Music I am prompted to choose one of two file paths - users>my name music music or users>my name music audio music apps.

When I select music music it simply adds another '/' to the file name.

When I select music audio music apps it then gives me an array of options to choose, if I press one and enter it takes me back to the save option and renames it back to Music 1.

Clearly I have no idea what I am doing and nervous I will end up loosing my playlists altogether.

I did think of trying to find the itunes.itl file with finder and renaming it first but I can't find that option without doing the 'option and open music'

Could someone please explain what part I am doing wrong so that I can retrieve my playlists and put them in Music?

thanks so much in advance.
