Perhaps this thread helps you as it looks like the same problem again:

And on a side note: I don't really understand your reaction. I mean: I don't have the problem, you have.  
And therefore it is of course your choice how to deal with it - which also means that you can stop any interaction any time you want.  
But could you please find out for yourself how much time you intend to spend and how open you are to answer questions and supply additional information before you start a thread?  
Also, please start to follow these guidelines:

> If you need support using Mp3tag, you can help the community members that are about to support you in finding a solution or workaround to your problem, by following these simple guidelines. Be descriptive, also in what you’ve already tried Please give a short explanation what’s not working as expected or what you’re trying to achieve. It’s best to know any details about the problem at hand and especially, what steps you’ve already tried to solve it by yourself. Helpful information also includ…

You have started a lot of threads that did not apply to these rules and it is very time consuming for the participants in this forum to ask for the missing information in several iterations.  
This is also addressed in the linked post:

> If you're asked any follow-up questions, please assume the best intentions, be as helpful as possible and try to answer in earnest and with the best intentions.

> ## Use screenshots to exemplify the issue

> It’s often helpful to see what you’re doing. Because nobody here can look over your shoulders, a screenshot sometimes adds detail to your description and an experienced user can spot issues, that are not obvious for others. Especially for questions regarding tag contents, missing tag fields, and other tag-field related issues, a screenshot of the **Extended Tags Dialog** of the file in question via Alt + T is often helpful.
