Hello, I have started using MP3Tag to update my music library so each file gets a cover. One thing I've noticed is that when I tag the genre, there are already suggestions like Acid, Jazz and the such. There are more than a few of these genre I don't use and even more of the ones that I use (like Metalcore, Death Metal, Trash Metal...) that aren't there. Basically, I would like to be able to add genres to the default list, so that I don't always have to write the whole thing each time, which would make me save a good amount of time. Is there a way that I can manually add/remove genres? Keep in mind I am no programmer and unless clear instructions are provided, I'll probably end-up just messing things up... --- _[View the full topic](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/add-new-music-genres/16497)._
