I just test for acdc "back in black"

1.test put thumbback.jpg in album folder
I press in context menu "artwork options" and in next menu "refresh(auto lookup)" for album "back in black"
have thumbback

You need to tell me which OS you use as what you describe will never work on windows...

- artist: AC/DC
- artist folder: ACDC (windows does not allow "/" in folder name)

It will result in a mismatch between artist name and folder name causing skin helper to never found any artworks localy stored in artist and album folders (I got to set them manually each time I reinstall kodi...)

So how should I do to have my localy stored thumbback.jpg working for back in black if I could not select it manualy?

AC/DC was just an exemple but there is other artists name that will trigger an issue

To go further on this one...

I have a bunch of artist that also have issue
For these one, there is no mismatch between artist name and folder name and the artworks are named and placed in the same way than for other artist that did not trigger issue

-if I disable online fetching in metadata utils, then it does not see any artwork
-if I enable it, ten it ignore them and download them from internet

A part of these artists: soprano, flo rida, madonna, guns n' roses
