Is there an action or how I can write one that would help me remove all extended tags except the following:  
artist, album artist, title, track, year, genre and album?

I don't need and neither care about any additional tags.

Thanks!

See the help on the action "Remove fields except":

> **[Remove Fields Except – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/actions/remove-fields-except/)**
>
> Documentation on the Remove Fields Except action type that can be performed as Quick Action or as reusable workflow from Action Groups. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.
