I'm very new to Wordpress. I just started working locally (using XAMPP on Ubuntu 14.04) when my HD crashed and i had to reinstall everything.
I'm pretty sure that before crash i was able to "upload" media simply by moving files into upload folder using a file manager (i'm sure i also added an upload/bg subfolder using shell). To see the new files into the media library i just had to refresh the media-upload page.
Now, after startover (ubuntu 16.04, lamp instead of XAMPP, WP 4.5.3 - can't remember old version) i cannot see copied media files anymore in media library. Of course files are there (in the upload folder), both uploaded and copied, and i can see them using any browser (url like localhost/mysite/wp-content/uploads/myimg.jpg is working fine), but in media library i only see the uploaded ones.
Maybe in my old setting i installed a plugin that i forgot?

As far as I know:
WordPress stores all uploaded images in the wp-content/uploads folder in sub-folders for each month. It also stores a unique reference to the uploaded image in the WordPress database.
