Found the answer to music on SD card not scanning properly.

This issue has bugged me for ages. Poweramp and Neutron both scan and find my whole collection with NO issues, why do most music apps, and Android, fail this simple task?
I just tried re-naming and moving some albums from a parent directory to the main Music directory. BAM! They show up in a simple music app now. So, you have your Music folder and only store individual albums within. Don't use artist folders with album sub directories. So simple a solution but nobody ever told me that when it's been mentioned on forums

Media Date Recovery - Fix your media creation dates.
Sometimes after transfering the media files across multiple devices Android loses real creation dates of the files. This application is designed to fix media dates by reading EXIF metadata of the files. You can use EXIF date to restore file date or set your custom.

Cool. Usually, when I used some tools to help me import pictures and other data from computer to my Android phone, the time will be changed. It shows the time I imported them, not its original time. Thanks a lot.

Bug when deleting images (Piktures)

I'm using Google Traslator
Everything works normally, but, until I install the Piktures app, (a gallery), and until I wanted to move some images from My carpet downloads to my SD card, and although it seemed that they had been moved / deleted, the images kept appearing in other applications like or Facebook or Discord, and even in the default file manager!
These images appear corrupt, and I cannot delete them in any way, because they do not appear in any file manager or galleries! Only in the image selection screen of Discord, Facebook, and any other similar application.

Please let me know if there is a way to remove them. I don't want to resort to Hard Reset again

Android Folders

Just wanna understand the purpose of the data in the folders below.
So, in SDMaid - I can see the below folders with root access (OP Nord COS 12)
A - Device/Data/app - 56gb
---- This has folders which look like temporary folders (all of them starts with ~~)
B - Device/Data/user - 20gb
---This has folders for each app
C - Device/Data/data - 20gb
---This has folders for each app (almost identical to the Data/user folder)
1. Are the folders at "B" and "C" identical? Can one of them be deleted?
2. Is the folder "A" actually storing temp files? like cache?
