Maybe this topic can help you:

> Hi Florian, I work with lots of karaoke files. .mp3 and .cdg I was the one who suggested mp3tag renamed the .cdg as well as the .mp3 This has helped me lots over the years. I now want to move large quantities of files from one folder to another. When I select the files, mp3tag moves the .mp3 but does not move the .cdg file. Could this be implemented please? Thank you, Lee.

Are you sure, that the CDG-rename function isn't already there:

And this should also work for WMA and CDG:

> CDG files for WMA are now also renamed with [Mp3tag v2.90f](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/455).

Just tested and it works:

To refresh the File List entries, I just pressed F5 after renaming the \*.mp3 and the \*.cdg was renamed automatically.
