Topic: Preserving track informations on missing files
Hi!

Maybe I did something wrong but before doing another mistake I'd prefer asking first.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
Backstory (skip if you don't need details):
I made a copy of some tracks to send to my friend.
(Because its easier I like to send my tracks via dropbox-link, thats why I had to make a copy in order to keep my tracks in their original path, etc.)

Weeks later I made a new playlist for myself and accidentally took one of the songs from the copies I made previously.
I was using this track for months and yesterday I cleaned up a little bit of my dropbox drive and of course deleted the copied folder, which also deleted the one specific track I was using for so long.

-----------------------------------------------------------------


The actual problem:
In the browser it showed that this track was missing, so I made a right click and searched for the missing file.
I went to the location of the original file and chose it.
But all the informations of the track were missing, the track was empty...
No cues, no playcount, rating or anything else.

I suspect that it has to do with "setTagsAuto", which I have set to on/yes, but before messing around with it I wanted to ask.
Would the informations be still there in the "new" track?

But in case "setTagsAuto" is not the reason, wouldn't it be correct to apply the "old" informations otno the "new" track?


- Thank you!
