Xperia 1 iii Sync feature removed from Windows 11

Hi all,

Some advice on my Xperia 1 iii would be most helpful.

I have used my Windows 10 laptop to sync music to my phone using Windows media Player for several years now, as I have a vast amount of music on my hard drive.

But on buying a new Windows 11 laptop, I have found that the sync feature is missing from the WMP (legacy) version pre- installed onto the laptop.
Does anyone know a decent music player software that will sync with my phone ? I thought Sony Music Centre for PC would be the answer but it seems it only sync's with Walkmans , which seems a little odd. .

I dont really want to have to manually find the songs I want to add to my phone by dragging from the music folder onto the SD card, as its a clumsy solution to be honest and not easy to navigate.
