_sorry the question sounds dumb, but i really dont know how to search for it_
i know somewhere in the settings the genre tags can be saved, so when filling out the genre field it pulls from memory and makes it quicker to fill out as i dont have to write it everytime
i forgot where in the settings and couldnt find by myself
thanks
**mp3tag version 3.34.1**
