Full index rebuild, but songs now show twice
Answered
I have just bought a new home cloud drive after my old one died. I copied my backup of music files over on to it, added a network share on BluOS then did a full index rebuild on my node (not just a standard reindex).
All my songs are now showing twice. I have checked the "technical info" of several to confirm both entries point to the same files and not duplicates. I also checked this article - https://support1.bluesound.com/hc/en-us/articles/202776548-Why-does-my-Album-listing-show-each-track-twice- , which not only mentions checking for duplicates, but also mentions this as a potential issue if the files are stored in the c:\Users directory, which my files are not as they are on the external home cloud drive.
Does anyone know what could have happened, or how I can fix this please?

Thanks, just tried this. I emptied the recycle bin on my laptop (no links to any of these files there through). I have removed the network share, and checked that I now have no network shares or local shares added.
However, 40 minutes later and my library is all still visible in BluOS and I can even play the songs if I click play on them. I've looked at the technical info for a few of these songs and it points to the folder on my home cloud drive for the network share that I remove 40 minutes ago, so I'm not sure it's removed the link to the files even after removing the network share.
However, without me asking, it appears to be doing a (much slower than normal) reindex without me having asked it to do that. I'll see what the state of play is after that reindex has finished.

It somehow seemed to be stuck in a constant cycle of reindexing. Have done a full factory reset, mapped the network share, and it's fixed it.
