Groove and Photo app not updating

[Windows Central Question]

Groove and Photo app not updating the latest music or images since the aniversay update.

Groove is showing I have 999 songs when I have around 700 on my phone and is now refusing to add anything new. All my music is stored on the SD card and I have tried removing it and playing music so that it clears its database. When it readds music it only adds the same music but again saying I have 999 song when I have less.

The photo app also doesn't add any new picture. Everything is stored on my SD card and when I take a new photo it will show in the app for a few seconds then vanish.

In both cases if I use file explorer I can see everything on the SD card. is anyone else having similar problems? Is there a fix?

Help im giving up on Windows phone.

Your sd card might be faulty. Does it show the same problem when everything is on internal storage?

SD card is fine this all started after the anniversary update. I can play and see eveything fine via file explorer or VLC.

Quick test: Copying to local storage works.

This isn't the fix though. Why doesn't it work via the SD card?
