In Mp3tag 2.93 has the Tag Box view changed?  
I have been using Mp3tag for years yet when I updated to day it seems the tag box view now has multiple boxes showing the same thing and it will not edit tags in the first boxes but when I move down the list to the second section of boxes it will edit the tags. Is there something I am missing?

I have also looked in File - Options - Tag Panel and there are the same boxes repeated many times. Why is this?

You're not the first one to report this and the easy and quick fix is to remove the duplicates at "Options \> Tag Panel".

If you want to help me at identifying the issue you can read

Regarding the duplicate fields: you're not the first one to report this, but I have really no idea what is causing the issue. I've changed the standard fields (title, artist, album, ...) to be configurable, so they become part of the user-defined fields at "Options \> Tag Panel". To achieve that, Mp3tag adds the standard fields if the previous version is before v2.88c (this is the development version were I've change…

I thought I've fixed the issue by detecting Mp3tag being closed when the user is logged out as explained here

> [@Duplicate standard fields in Tag Panel after update to v2.89](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/duplicate-standard-fields-in-tag-panel-after-update-to-v2-89/42287/4):

> I've fixed an issue with the latest development build [Mp3tag v2.90b](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/455), where the configuration file wasn't written if the Window session was closed while Mp3tag was open. This resulted in Mp3tag performing the Tag Panel update again and produced the duplicate fields.

Unfortunately, the issue seems to be still present. One exception that could explain the behavior would be a hard crash of your computer or an electricity blackdown, but I doubt this was the case.

You can actually delete the superfluous duplicates via the button on the right.
