Hello mp3tag Community I can't get to Save Tags to flac files. I only have the "Filename" and want to add the "Title, Artist, Album etc" so I follow the "First Steps" under "Help" and select the Filenames involved and can see all the tags in the left hand box (with an image of the Front Cover).

Just a quick note to say what the problem was. It was third party software that caused mp3tag not to work. Found this out months ago but forgot to say so here. So if anyone has problems with either tagging flac or mp3 files check that your third party software doesn't interfere with mp3tag. Thank yo…

[image] mikecrow: It was third party software that caused mp3tag not to work It was your 3rd party software that made the explorer not to show the data. If MP3tag shows that the data is embedded in the files then the data is really there and it was not MP3tag that did not work but the displa…
