Duplicate songs in albums by accident

Roon Software Discussion
1

I have a bunch of albums that have duplicate songs because I recently moved folders and created new folders in file explorer for roon storage. Basically I just cleaned up file explorer by creating new folders and condensing music.But I wasn’t aware that I started adding duplicate songs in my roon storage that duplicates were appearing. I noticed my old music folder that I had was meshed in my adding music location. I should’ve deleted it, before I created a roon storage watch folder watch folder.So I just did delete that music folder just now while roon is still adding music. So it stopped duplicating songs. So now I just need to know how to get rid of duplicate songs and clean it up. Does focus inpector help get rid of duplicates or will it damage it? Or does roon do it on it’s own?

Or should I just remove watch folder and redo another one?

Thanks for replying. Music is still being added and what has been doing since I deleted that music folder (in the mesh) it went back on its own it has been downloading everything again the right way. So I’m hoping those duplicate song albums will disappear eventually in my albums browser. I did click on “no” for hidden. And I have been checking on library clean up waiting for more to pop up to delete.
