It looks as though you have APE tags in the files. I suspect that you do not read them - so you don't see what is in the tags. See File\>Options\>Tags\>Mpeg which tags you read, write and delete. ---

as you read APE tags, it could be that the APE-tags are empty. But as APE tags have priority (in MP3tag) over all other tags, it could be that their emptiness replaces the sensible data. So switch off reading and writing APE-tags, select the files and press Ctrl-T ro re-read the tags and see if that helps. ---

i think this time it works, look pls at my new screenshot, this song of victor haynes as an example to compare to other screenshot i sent here earlier, his song with a number..now- without a number..thank u...!but why this word ''unknown'' by each song? this i must ask my music player, right ?[Screenshot\_20210404-171449\_Music Player (2)|513x500](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/short-url/nVLaFB7Dijvzj4WwVTgfK8tnSE6.jpeg) ---

I don't see which tag fields you have filled in MP3tag for the files. From the earlier screenshot it looks like there was not a lot of data in the APE tags. But how much can be found in the ID3V2.3 fields? I interpret "unknown" as "missing" - so you would have to look whether you have filled ALBUMARTIST, ARTIST, TITLE, ALBUM, TRACK. The string that I see in the last screenshot looks to me like the filename. ---

MP3tag is only the helper. If you had used MP3tag all along, then the tags would not have gone out of sync - but I suspect that you used some other programs e.g. to get replaygain info. But that does not really matter as you want to change the current situation. So it would be up to you to compare the files that look OK and those that don't and then get them the same amount of information. Also, I doubt that the player really uses the file system to separate the albums. I bet that it uses the tag fields ALBUMARTIST, ARTIST, TITLE, ALBUM, TRACK. See, if filling these fields makes/is the difference ---
