itunes never recognises library
I've recently upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 7, mainly as I couldn't install the latest version of iTunes. Since downloading the latest version it never recognises where my library is. It loads as if I've never used iTunes before, comes up with the agreement and asks if I'd like to scan my computer for media.
Why won't it recognise where my library is? I've always used an external drive with iTunes and I've never really had a problem. Does anybody please know the solution? I'm tired of trying to remember to press shift before clicking on iTunes to load my library every time.
