How to get the deleted Albums/Song back in library?
« on: January 15, 2012, 05:45:38 pm »

While looking for one specific Album I realized that I deleted several albums from my main library by accident. Now I am trying to get them back but every time when I scan for these CD the program tells me that it skipped 818 songs because I deleted them from the library. One I cannot find a setting to get them back in my library. Second, when I get them back I would like to know which albums/songs that I deleted so I put them in right playlist. I cannot restore from the backup because I don’t know when I deleted them and I am working with these libraries every day so I will lose all my work if I restored from the old backup. >:(

Import has an option to import files previously deleted.

Try putting

~d=a

In the search box in the top right.

I tried ~d=a in search box. It did nothing, maybe I am doing something wrong.

 Also I was looking for the option where I could import previously deleted music and that’s exactly what I posted this question for, where is this option?

Tools > Options > Library & Folders > Configure auto-import

Choose your folder, click Edit and uncheck Ignore Files Previously Removed from Library

Sorry, you have to choose your folder, click edit and then uncheck Ignore Files Previously Removed from Library.

I've updated the original post to reflect the omission.

Thanks. Yes, it worked. Now one last thing who do I know which albums were these, because I have to add them in some playlist. Is there a log or a way find it out?
