I asked this a little while ago, still not resolved.
By some stupid key pushing error on my part, my entire iTunes music library( several thousand tunes)is no longer in my iTunes , but seems to be in windows media player, I would like to get them back to iTunes.
I am running windows 8.1, and have the computer skills of a senior citizen, need simple precise instructions for dummies please!
The specific piece of advice that most applies in your situation would be:
It may be worth trying the shift-start-iTunes method (option on a Mac) to actively select the .itl file that should contain your library.
The standard location for the iTunes library in Windows is C:\Users\<User>\Music\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl

Hi,
This does not look to be the answer.
my iTunes was not corrupted, upgraded, nor did it crash.
Previous versions (as shown on your reply) are empty as well.
I originally hit the shift and something else (don't remember) and poof everything was gone.
It does look like it is (or most of it) is in my windows media.
I am still trying to find a way to shift it back
thanks
If I recall I tried to open my iTunes while the shift key was depressed
moved my itunes lbrary by mistake
