Most of my musics show tags in Windows explorer but there are few (grey ones on the first capture) that don't whereas they are correctly tagged in MP3Tag (second capture). ![](http://i.imgur.com/jYkYOA8.png) ![](http://i.imgur.com/UsonAUa.png) The biggestpart of my collection (1500 titles) has the column "Interprète de l'album" filled in Windows explorer. The previous dont. The following neither but they all have "Interprète ayant participé" filled. ![](http://i.imgur.com/z0QHeSp.png) As the first ones, in MP3Tag, the field " Interprète" is filed with informations. Could you help me please ? Philippe ---

Doesn't support v2.4. Use v2.3 in options. See attached my settings. Once that's done. MP3s ONLY 1. Ctrl + R to remove tag type 2. Ctrl + S to save * * * MY BAD. Didn't notice they were FLACs. Above ONLY works for mp3 file. Try this (Stuff there for 7 too) [http://blog.dabasinskas.net/enable-flac-su...t-on-windows-8/](http://blog.dabasinskas.net/enable-flac-support-on-windows-8/) ![](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/a/a69a3086f745ce5b1d7dd842f225f4f996f4dbcc.jpg) ---

Did you look at the link I sent. It has a link for “Windows 7 FLAC Property Handler“ half way down the page. Did you try that? ---

i confirm lenght property that could disable other fields by the same time. A few mp3 went to trash (maybe low quality (6Mb)) Thank you for your help Stevehero. Good bye. ---
