Unable to get newly generated Filename->tag fields saved to files also no column headers

I just can't seem to find a way to save all these new titles and numerals to the files as track and title (artist too). I went thru all 2786 and with the exception of 145 mp3s (mostly no tag type or APE type) I was able to by using one of the following filename -> tag formats (I saved most of these as I went along):

%track%. %artist% - %title%

%track%. %artist%-%title%

%track% - %artist% - %title%

%artist% %artist% - %year% %album% - %track% - %title%

%track% - %title% - xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx

%track% - %artist% (%title%)

%track% - %artist% - %title%

I was able to get all those track numbers fields to have the track numbers in them (except those 145). inside the program here.
Now I am unable to get these items to output those track values (artist and titles as well) into the original files, which remain unchanged.
I had some settings in the wrench Options dialogue for tagging which were:
read: all three types
write: ID3v1 and ID3v2 subselection ID3v2.3 UTF -16 (just a wild stab I don't know which to choose)
Remove: none selected. I did try Removing APE but it didn't work.

After finishing this large list over several hours I don't want to update the program as it may clear my list. But I feel the program has another problem because here are no column headers (names at the tops of columns). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

To write a new filename try
Convert>Tag-Filename
Format string: $num(%track%,2) - %artist% - %title%

To remove APE tags, set on to read and remove APE tags, off to write them.
Then load the files,
Select them
Use "Delete Tag" from the right-click menu of the file list.
THen enable to read and write ID3V2 tags again.

I want the filenames to stay the same in this section (this post) before I can actually change the filenames here (not like my other post) I need to get the track number out of it...

If I was able to (as I describe in the adjacent post) get the filenames changed, I would have a better starting point for this action of getting the track number tag set. But here I am having a problem with saving that track number tag that I got out of the filename after a couple of different passes at the files. It just doesn't save these generated track numbers to the files. the original files are unchanged. Thanks for your quick replies, Hello,
