I added the ITUNESADVISORY tag from the Extended Tags window but even though I entered the values 1 or 2 depending on the song, the C for Clean or E for Explicit doesn't appear when I play the song on the Apple Music app on my PC. Please help!

You can try to add this C or E in your Apple Music App (if possible) and then load the same song in Mp3tag.

What fields and content can you see in Mp3tag if you press Alt + T on this song?

Or you can load an m4a file in Mp3tag where this C or E already appears correctly in your Apple Music App and compare it.

Okay so the 'E' is appearing but 'C' won't appear even though I set the value at 2. I compared with another song and all metadata has the same field names.

Perhaps you need to manually "refresh" or "re-read" the change made in Mp3tag in the ITUNESADVISORY field of your song in your Apple Music App?

(I don't use this App, so I can't tell you exactly where this could be done.)

For a short test, you could rename your song slightly and check if the C or E will be displayed correctly for this "new" song.

It seems to be an issue with Apple Music on Windows, which doesn't show the `C` for Clean if `ITUNESADVISORY` is set to `2`.

It's showing fine in Apple Music on macOS and in latest iTunes 12.13.7.1 on Windows.
