How to get my music folder to show all the files (mp3's)?

Question

I have a music folder that when I check the properties it says it has 2,378 files in it. But when I open the file it shows and counts only 233. No files are hidden and if I know the exact address on the drive the files come up but when you just open the folder they are not there? Whats is going on am I crazy!!!!!!

Answer 1

Make sure that you have the files set to "All files" not just mp3's. It could be that some of your sound files are not MP3's but also could be WMA's, Mp4's or something else.
