Update Apple Music Library

Hi,

I just finished setting up my new Macbook. Everything looks fine except I can't view my local music library in the Music app. I have ~50GB music files so instead of downloading alI of them again, I transferred them from my old Windows laptop. I put them in Music library folder under Library in Finder, change media folder location in Music's preferences but it seems it won't scan my music files.

If this is worth to mention, right now I don't subscribe to Apple Music.

Please help
