Thank you Ric. But what about mouse, right click, delete and nothing happens. I went everywhere and could,nt figure out what happened after update.
track numbers in front of song names in windows music library, windows 7
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!!!!!!

It may be worth stopping and restarting WMP but we'll try that later if necessary.

One other suggestion about backing up your music... Do you know about Google Music Player? It's extremely useful because you can upload your entire library (up to 50,000 tracks) free - they are also available for free download if you ever lose anything so particularly good for anything rare or personal. Mainstream music is matched to Google's own database but anything that cannot be matched will be uploaded from your PC. You can also add the player app to authorized mobile devices so it gives you access anywhere you can go online.
