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!!!!!!

    Going to 'My Music' in Users might be preferable - but test moving one album to the library folder and check that it goes in OK - if so probably fine - I'm not regularly using W7 so even I get confused by this three-way system!

    Ok...............can you advise me how to put my music back into WMP.  My thought:   move my music from computer documents files back into windows music library file and will that automatically populate WMP?

    Is Amazon in the backup at the moment? - if so that should be OK. Otherwise - just update if anything unexpected happens - if all's looking good just gradually move albums back to the music folder.

    Ric, when i ripped the cd again, it went to the "E" drive.......probably because that's my cd player.  After I took the cd out of the player, all songs were gone in "E" drive and they are in the "music" file.  Going to rip another cd.  Is there anything else tonight?  Will you get back to me in a couple of days??   Or should I contact you?   Oh...........and by the way...........I can right click on song in wmp music library and delete!!!!!!    yey!!!!!
