As of today, i could no longer edit any tags for mp4 files, downloaded with the latest Audials22. mp3 is ok.  
I installed also the latest mp3tag - still no change. When saving any tag changes, the message comes up that the file could not be written. Subsequently there is a tmp file in the folder for each file for which write was tried.

I only have Windows defender active.

Running M3Tag [2022-01-21] REL: VERSION 3.12 (for Windows 11/10/8.1/8/7)

Have you checked the files for consistency?  
See suggestions for tools here:

> It’s required and often helps to reduce support cycles to check files for errors before filing a bug report. Symptoms of erroneous files are often missing or wrong bitrate or length audible blips or skips tags seem to be sticky and cannot be removed There are some really good tools to check the files for errors, namely MP3 Diags — identifies many different issues in MP3 files Website: [http://mp3diags.sourceforge.net](http://mp3diags.sourceforge.net) Download: [MP3 Diags - Getting MP3 Diags](http://mp3diags.sourceforge.net/010_getting_the_program.html#binWindows) If the font size in MP3 Diags is …

You probably need Foobar2000 to check mp4 files.

Did you convert the files with some kind of online service?  
Then it is fairly likely that you got files with an invalid format back.

Any solution here? I´ve got the same issue...  
Checked all files and they seem to be ok. While MP3 tags can be written, MP4 tags can not written any more.
