Playlist Folders Vanish When I Close and Reopen iTunes on my PC

I've just reinstalled my iTunes library on my PC from my iPod Touch using the iMyFone app after accidentally deleting my PC's iTunes music file. (Don't ask...) All of my tunes transferred but all of my folders and a few of my playlists didn't survive the transfer. So, I rebuilt the missing items on my PC's iTunes, but they're gone again when I next open iTunes. Thanks for any ideas on a solution.

Windows, Windows 10
