Have you already added `*.wav` to the list of restricted files in  
File -\> Options -\> Tags -\> "Restricting incoming files to:" ?

> Documentation on Tags configuration options. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.

Hint for other extensions:

Mine looks like this and it leads to MP3tag to read webm-files: \*.aac; \*.ape; \*.apl; \*.asf; \*.flac; \*.flc; \*.mp+; \*.mp1; \*.mp2; \*.mp3; \*.mp4; \*.m4a; \*.m4b; \*.m4v; \*.mpc; \*.ogg; \*.oga; \*.ofr; \*.ofs; \*.spx; \*.tak; \*.tta; \*.wma; \*.wv; \*.tmp; \*.001; \*.010; \*.opus; \*.dsf; \*.mpg; \*.wav; \*.aif; \*.aifc; \*.aiff; \*.mka; \*.mkv; \*.sfk; \*.webm Oh yes: and how do you open these…
