MC crashes

Thats what I am saying, same library different players, same PC, not sure how much more I can simplify, with the exception of MC Cloud.  Will let this run for a while till I switch back to MC, just to see if I run into any issues with hardware and or Windows. 

JimH:
What is "MC Cloud"?

Do you mean JRiver's Cloudplay?

Or Apple iCloud?

Or Microsoft OneDrive, which Brian suggested above:

JRiver cloud play is what I was referring too, I don't know why the log said the file was OneDrive, for all my local music is stored in a folder on my desktop, I uninstalled Microsoft OneDrive, so not sure why it shows OneDrive in the location of file. (C:\Users\mpg73\OneDrive\Desktop\Music\Rock\Paradise City (Explicit).flac)

Awesome Donkey:
It's because by default OneDrive backs up files on the desktop to the cloud. It's very annoying on clean Windows installs, and turning that off in OneDrive's settings is one of the first things I do after a new Windows install.

In my opinion the desktop isn't the best place to keep your music files. Ideally you'd want to store them on a drive (e.g. second HDD/SSD, NAS, etc.) that's not your primary Windows OS boot drive. This helps ensure that in case you ever need to reinstall Windows, you won't lose all your music files... though of course this isn't infallible or perfect, so having multiple backups in different locations is a good idea. Right now if you have to reinstall Windows with all your music in a folder on the desktop without any backups or storing them in a separate drive, you'll lose everything.

Thanks.  That's Cloudplay.
