The explorer reads comment fields that have the same language token as the Windows environment.  
See Options\>Tags\>Advanced and change it, if necessary.  
`eng` is the language token that iTunes uses by default.

See e.g. here:

> Hello everybody, I was trying to edit some mp3 tags, when I noticed that the comment field isn't updated in windows explorer, although there were no errors in MP3Tag. Every other field went fine... I tried tag names such as %comment% and %description%, but no luck... Right-clicking the song in MP3Tag does show the comment, but in Windows Explorer, this information seems not to be there in any field...
