Is your system fully updated?

How many tracks?

What speaker are you using for the update? Do you have a more capable one available?

Is that from a desktop controller? Have you tried doing it from an app?

Have you tried refreshing your network and starting the process over?

Good that you are okay now. Since you reset everything (resetting Sonos should only be needed when Sonos explicitly asks you to) it will forever be unclear what the real problem was.

And there is why Sonos and most users here (but not idiot AI bots) tell you not to Factory Reset.

It usually makes things worse and rarely fixes anything.

 

When it is approriate or necessary to use it is called out as such in the Sonos documentation.

What do you mean “add shared folder is grayed out”?
