  1. When I got the new Samsung Galaxy S20 + 5G phone, I moved my SD card (which has all the music and my playlist) from my old phone to my new phone. Then in Poweramp, I rescanned the SD card. None of the music appeared in Poweramp. I tried scanning multiple times by changing how I would “SELECT FOLDER” and which SCAN vs RESCAN menu I use. (EX: Poweramp > Settings > Library > Music Folders > Select all on SD Card > Full rescan.) NONE of that made any difference. I read the Forum, and I found that the issue possibly was that the new Samsung S20 phone was running Android 10 (old phone running Android 6) and Android 10 has a new security system. I needed to give the Android “Permission” to scan the Storage files for Poweramp to use. To do that I went to the phone’s Settings > Apps > Poweramp > Storage > Permissions > Storage> Allow. (By default, the files on the external drive were BLOCKED by Droid OS from being used by Poweramp.) That worked, BUT I had many non-music audios (podcasts, voice recordings) that I did NOT want, so I deleted everything in Poweramp, Selected just the folders I wanted and did a full Rescan and a normal rescan, all the music is gone once again from Poweramp. When I rescan, Poweramp finds "Folders 0. Playlist 125, Songs:0". In my Music folder on my SD card I have 245 folders, and about 400 songs. Also, to be sure Poweramp had the Permissions it needed, I went into Settings > Apps > Poweramp > Modify System Settings > Allow Permissions. Please help.
