Using 2.46 on Win 7.

Steps to create bug:  
Change to directory with sub-directories containing ~5,000 mp3 files with ID3v2.4 APEv2 tags.  
Select _all_ files. (Same problem exists if selecting only a file subset.)  
Open 'Extended Tags' dialog.  
Edit TAG-A.  
Change TAG-A name to TAG-B.  
Select OK.

Results:  
TAG-A removed.  
TAG-B did not exist.  
Can go back to original state using Undo Save Tag.

I can supply a before and after file demonstrating bug.

I've tried to reproduce it but everything works as expected here.

Can you reproduce it when you try it with two example files?
