Tag not actually saving, despite being changed in mp3tag

Support
#1

Recently just changed an artist name in mp3tag and saved it. The artist had an apostrophe in it, but it was tagged with the weird one, instead of > ' <. I replaced it with the correct apostrophe and saved it, closed mp3tag and opened the album on Musicbee and there was no change. I reopened the album in mp3tag and it shows as changed, even though it's not being displayed as changed in Musicbee. I then had to change it through Musicbee and that worked. Any idea what could be happening?

Edit: No tags are actually being changed, despite appearing changed in mp3tag.

Edit 2: I think it might just be Musicbee somehow not knowing tags have been changed.

Doesn't Musicbee have a database in the background to store file data?
This would have to be updated.
What happens if you rename the file (slightly) and add it to Musicbee - does this (new) file show the changes?

Haha, before reading this I decided to rename the files (the file names) and it fixed it! Thanks!

While I was visiting the forum I saw 2 posts that helped me change 2 things that annoyed me (Double clicking a song opening the file, and having to confirm every change). All in all I'm happy now!
