I've downloaded a couple of albums using iTunes for Windows 10. I can't find where iTunes has stored them. They're not in iTunes/iTunes Media (all other downloads are). I've not downloaded any music for some time - have Apple changed the way that iTunes stores music?
I've done a couple of searches in Windows explorer using the album names and the artist with no results being shown.

Hello, HarryW52.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities! We're happy to help.
Check out this section of the iTunes User Guide. It provides steps to locate your files or change where their downloaded/imported:
Change where iTunes files are stored on PC - Apple Support
Let us know! Take care.
You can right-click on a song and use Show in Windows Explorer to reveal where it is stored, assuming it is stored locally and not in the cloud. Occasionally permissions issues can cause iTunes to store files at a higher point in the folder tree than usual, sometimes even using the desktop.

Thanks for the replies, I’ve now found the two albums (and a few others) in illogical places within my music library. Now all moved to their correct places.
If it was a permissions issue rather than metadata causing the unexpected location see Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows - Apple Community.

Thanks for the link, I’ll take a look when I’m on my PC.
