Will I lose my playlists if I uninstall Apple Music?

Will uninstalling Apple Music make me lose my music? I installed it on a trial but want to go back to iTunes. Since installing Apple Music there is no music available in iTunes anymore.

I run Win 11 on my pc.

Uninstalling Apple Music to get iTunes functionality back I, like others, have lost much of my music that I stripped from CD's. I have seen responses to others telling them to uninstall Apple Music on their PC to get back to iTunes as a solution. Questions: How will deleting Apple Music on my PC affect my ability to benefit from Apple music on my PC then, and will it affect any of my other devices service? Will the music I previously listened to be found again? Does simply uninstalling Apple Music enable iTunes to function as before or what should I do next?

How do I revert my music media back to iTunes instea of Apple Music on my pc? I recently installed Apple Music app on my windows pc. Now all my music and media files play from Apple Music instead of iTunes. I didn’t want this to happen, as there are some ppl at my church who are not as tech savvy as I am and they’ll panic when they see all the music doesn’t play in iTunes anymore. Is there a way to revert back to iTunes? If I delete Apple Music will it revert back to iTunes?

I've had playlists with hundreds of songs and suddenly they only have like twenty, so then I have to remake my playlist all over again. There is a problem with your Apple Music system, please fix it.

No. Uninstalling either Apple Music or iTunes will leave the libraries as they are ready should you reinstall. Remove any and all of Apple Music, Apple TV and Apple Devices that you have installed, then when you open iTunes you should be able to select Music from the media selection tool to see your library as it was before you installed Apple Music.
