> Hi, I have all my MP3 files stored on a QNap NAS box, whenever I try to modify and save the ID3 tag using mp3tag, I get an error which says (filename) cannot be opened for writing. The only way I can update the ID3 tag is to copy the files to my desktop, edit the tags and then save them back to the NAS. I'm using MP3tag 2.81 on a windows 10 box any ideas?
