Where, when my phone is connected via USB to my PC, will my music files on the phone be?

I have a Samsung S5, Developer Options enabled and the like, and I want to transfer all 297 songs on the phone over to my computer before I factory reset it. However, when I go into the phones files on my PC and go into the music folder, it comes up as No Files. Obviously there are files, but I can't find them for all my searching and efforts with the phone. I have made sure to select the "Transfer Files as MTP" option out of the list on my phone for what to do with the connected PC, which online tutorials stated I should, but still no results. Considering how many songs there are, and how close to heart some of them are, I really can't reset the phone without transferring them on to the PC, and I don't want to back them up in any other way. Any help in finding them?
