When I correct MP3s, tagged by MP3Tag including Arts, via MP3GAIN, APE-Tags are created by MP3GAIN and shown by MP3Tag. When I remove these Tags via MP3Tag "Remove Tags" and try to restore the combination ID3v2.3 (ID3v1 ID3v2.3) for a whole CD via "Undo", MP3Tag is pending. When I do the same procedure for a single item I have no problem at all.  
I assume a "stack overflow" or a similiar problem in MP3Tag.

The question would be: how do you do that?  
Here is a way with which you can remove the APE tags without the "Undo" function:

> [@CAN't delete DISCNUMBER tag on some files](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/cant-delete-discnumber-tag-on-some-files/54742/5):
>
> Try it with: File\>Options\>Tags\>Mpeg and set the "Delete" Option to only APE. Then load the file again and try Edit\>Remove tag. If the DISCNUMBER is still there, go to the Extended tags dialogue and delete the field there and see if it works. If all this fails: check the file for consistency with MP3diags.

And why MP3tag is unresponsive ... could be that the files are locked by another program ... A stack overflow would probably lead to real crash including error log.

There was also a problem with Acronis Active Protection recently. Maybe related or anything running with similar side effects?
