WMP has a cache for album art.  
see %appdatalocal%\Microsoft\Media Player\Grafikcache" and delete the folder LocalMls

Also: set all folder.jpg and albumartsmall.jpg files to visible, non-system:  
(best in a command shell: open file explorer, navigate to the top-most folder, Shift-right click for a context menu and select "Open command shell here". In the command shell enter the following:  
attrib -h -s /s \*.jpg

and delete them:  
del /s folder.jpg  
del /s albumartsmall.jpg  
Treat all thumbs.db in the same way.  
Close the command shell)

Then load your files into MP3tag and export the album art with an action to the name  
folder.jpg
