Here is a similar observation:

> [@how to change MP3 rating?](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/how-to-change-mp3-rating/18421):
>
> In Windows 10 (possibly in older versions of Windows), Windows Explorer shows a "Rating" column with between 0 and 5 stars colored yellow to indicate the rating of the each file. I have a Rating field in MP3tag as well, but the two ratings seem to be unrelated. Changing the rating in MP3tag does not change the rating shown by Windows Explorer. Please advise.
