J River duplicate music files, where are they?


Running J River on my PC. I have all my music on an external hard drive D:\. For some reason all my music is now duplicated in a drive E:\
I dont have an E drive and cannot locate where these files are. I would like to delete the E:\ folder files but I have no idea where they are. And I certainly want to make sure i dont delete the D:/ files.
Any help on this would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks in advance, John

IF the E: files are duplicates of the D: files in the library, you can try selecting the E: files and deleting them from the library. One option when you delete is to just delete the entry from the library without deleting the file from disk. That should remove the E: files from the library without touching the D: files. Before doing anything, back up your library. Then try this on one file and see if it works. Then do a few more. If that works, then you can do all of them.
Thanks for the input. I'am going to delve deeper with the above suggestions and see what I find out. I'll see if I can tag the E: files for deletion trying one first. I gotta find them though.
And yes I have a second external hard drive with a backup.
I did that part right. :')

If you want to see what's on your drives/partitions, the easiest way is to use a more powerful file manager than the one that comes with Windows. There's plenty of free ones you can download.
JSD52756: If you are still having difficulty locating any duplicated music files, the files are most likely NOT duplicated on disk. It is most likely a duplication in the "JRMC library". So it is unlikely you will be able to find duplicated music files anywhere on disk. That is why I suggested clearing the "library" in JRMC (after having reassigned the correct drive letter to your external drive - if that was indeed the cause of the problem) and then restoring the "JRMC library" from a backup copy of the JRMC library. No music file manipulation involved.

Good luck,

Bernie
As suggested I went to the JRiver discussion site and got my answer. Under files there it was, the E: with nothing but all the files names but no music. I deleted the E: files and Iam all better now. Thanks to all, John
