Don't you want to save that track number (and the other pieces of data that you find in the filename) in the tag fields?  
Use Convert\>Filename - Tag  
Pattern: `%track%. %title% @bY %artist%`  
(Check the preview if the pattern is right - perhaps I misread the @bY)

Then use Convert\>Tag-Filename with  
Format string: %artist% - %title%

Which is the artist?  
Is it "Profu"?  
Could you supply a copied and pasted plain text file name here in the forum? Then I could transform that into a pattern for the tag import.

I think that the title is somewhere in the filename.  
It could be that the following suits you better:  
`%track%. %title%`  
See if the preview is any better

Great, that it works  
If you want to rename the files, use Convert\>Tag-Filename (e.g.)  
Format string: %artist% - %title%

Even though this sounds not very motivating: the online help starts with a basic introduction "First steps".  
And there is the "FAQ" and the "HowTo" section in this forum with a lot of ready-made recipes to get the grasp of this program.  
And then there is the forum where you can ask questions or even give advice.
