Hi, I've looked in the support community but don't see my exact problem.  
When tagging multi disc files, the disc column remains blank even though I number the files as "1/2", for example.  
Why is this not working in my Windows file explorer? See screen shots:

Thank you for your help.

Select a single file in the explorer, open the properties dialogue and see which description holds the data (I think it is "part of a set"). Add this description as column in the windows explorer.

In my german windows file exporer, the column name is not "Disc", it is called "Teil eines Satzes".

[I assume](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/additional-research-results-for-the-topic-make-tag-fields-readable-by-windows-explorer/54062/4), that it is called "Part of set" (#249) in your english Windows file explorer.

Brilliant! That's it - "Part Of Set".

Thank you all!

So the topic of this thread "disc numbering does not work" is not really right: the disc numbering worked as it should. Only the display program was not properly setup by the user.
