Did you try turning local files on and off? Had this issue after the new UI update and it fixed it for me. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling? (or a clean reinstall)

Hey there @prynslik

 

Thanks for getting in touch about this.

 

In the new desktop client, the Local Files are in the Playlists tab when you click on Your Library in the main menu on the left - they should be right next to your Liked Songs.

 

In case that's not how the app looks like on your end, we'd recommend running a clean reinstall by following these steps and make sure to download the app again from the Microsoft Store.  

 

Also, it's worth trying to turn the local files option on and off and then restart the app as @Puyo mentioned previously.

 

Let us know how it goes 🙂

I have reinstalled Spotify from microsoft store and added two whole disks as sources below local files section and nothing happened. I still have 0 local files.

Hey @prynslik

 

Thanks for getting back in touch. 

 

Could you let us know if you've followed the steps in this article in the desktop app to see your local files?

 

Additionally, we recommend checking your firewall and and making sure Spotify is set as an exception.

 

Keep us posted on how it goes.
