Windows 10: Add CD photos for ripped CDs using Media Player

In Windows 7, Media Player automatically found photos for CDs I ripped and added them to the directory. Sometimes Media Player could not find proper photos, but that was always for obscure CDs. There were four image files three JPEGs beginning with "AlbumArt" and one JPEG titled "Folder" added to the directory, though I could never see them until I copied the directory to a Linux system and looked using Linux.


Windows 10, however, often does not find photos at all. I have a good number of ripped CDs for which I'd like to add the image files to the directory. When I try to add the image files via "Find Album Info," the suggestion is only for a generic image of a CD in a jewel case. One of these CDs is "Reflections- Carly Simon's Greatest Hits," which isn't obscure at all.


Is there a website from which I can copy the image files?

CD RIP in Media Player

RIP option does not come on in Windows Media Player when I load a CD. The songs are shown correctly in the listing but I am unable to rip to file. This has always worked OK before today.
