I am assuming this has nothing to do with any specific OS.
I can open music from anywhere of course, but my music used to show up under 'music' on the interface -- when it was in my default OS directory for that. I moved it to an external SSD drive, and now I have to manually go open that folder every time, and then it all loads into the 'play' section.
I've been through menus and right-clicking on 'music' but I can't seem to find a way to set the "default music location" in VLC. Isn't there some way to change this? Am I just blind?? Thanks ever so much for any guidance.
