track numbers in front of song names in windows music library, windows 7

Anonymous

I have track numbers in front of some of my song names (not title) in my music libarary. How do I get rid of them. They are not in the "name" in WMP. I try to right click and rename and that doesn't work. I try going through properties into details and delete numbers in front of name, but it doesn't stay changed. Tried to edit in WMP and that doesn't work. Nothing I do permenantly changes the name (not title).

Help!!!!!!

I suggested using it because it was at the top of the list in your photo - I mentioned it yesterday.

Thanks - this is certainly a bit unusual. Usually mp3 and WMA properties can be edited by the methods you have used. Using a copy of 'Proud Mary' - try altering the properties to those I have given to my version and see if it sticks.... Just the details as shown - if it changes back we'll try something different.
