iTunes Match stopped uploading tracks

I used Apple Music for a while, but switched it off because I was annoyed that a lot of the times, the wrong version of a song was playing (a live performance instead of the album version, etc).

However, since I switched off Apple Music (iCloud Music Library is still on), iTunes Match doesn't really update anymore. I have several songs that have the status 'Waiting'. The oldest one is from July 28th!

The new iTunes (12.2.2.25) doesn't seem to have the 'Update iTunes Match' option anymore. So how do I force an update?

HI,

Go to menu > file > library and select update iCloud music library. This is the command to update iTunes Match.

To add to your (correct) solution...under File > Library, I didn't have the option to update my iCloud library until I went into Settings and ticked 'iCloud Library'. Kind of annoying that the default was to have it unticked. Guess Apple is trying to push Apple Music instead?
