I have a small bug to report. My filter is not displayed after I reapply the same filter through Manage History.

1. Select a saved Filter (via Filter drop-down or apply in Manage History).

2. Open Manage History (right arrow to the right of the Filter, then Manage history...)
3. Apply the same Filter (select same Filter, select Apply button).

4. The result is a blank Filter:

I'm running v3.25h on Windows 11.  
I do have a large number of filters, ~380

I can confirm this behaviour. For any saved filter, on first apply the filter is displayed in the box. On the second and any subsequent apply of the same filter, the box becomes empty. A new filter needs to be selected and applied to restore the expected behaviour.

A simple **first workaround** would of course be to **save the filter** in **a text file** to have it handy for a **smart "copypaste"** thus avoiding the cumbersome retyping 😃

These filters are already saved in the managed list, so no retyping is necessary. Simply clearing the filter from the filter box first, then applying it again from the list works as the easiest workaround for now.

This should be fixed with [Mp3tag v3.26](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/455). Thanks for reporting!
