Try this. Click on the album folder (music, albums). Right click on the first track, and click "open in windows explorer". Highlight all the album tracks using the shift key, go to properties, and if the "read-only" box is checked, uncheck it, click apply, then OK. Then try to add the artwork in the usual way.

I have this issue as well.

The artwork was in place prior to the update , then disappeared.

I tried to re-install from the same artwork file I always use. The artwork comes up and but it wont add. Read only not checked, so not an issue.

Now checking entire library 950 G + for missing art.

Why are we getting Betas? This is why I dropped PC


Another issue, is that tracks from different albums are scattered throughout my playlists. ***!
