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.

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!!!!!!

2018-03-01T00:24:56+00:00 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?

2018-03-01T00:34:55+00:00 Ric, OMG!!!!! I just checked my documents file and all the file names are gone and all my music and other files has been run together. There are no seperate files that I had in the "music" file. ie: janet's 50, 60, 70, 80; garys 50's, 60's, alternative music, 80's music, etc. Over 5000 songs are all run together. ALL FILES in documents on computer have been alphabitized and no file titles. I backed all my music with seperate file names onto flash drive. Can I put them back from flash drive?

2018-03-01T00:40:53+00:00 Ric, while we are doing all of this..................I have a question. Is MS going to come out with another software other than windows 10? Also, again...........what is a good alternative to WMP that I can also export my amazon music to? I don't want one too complicated or in depth. My usage would be: exporting music from amazon, possibilly ripping a cd, definately backing up onto flash sticks for my car. That's about it. Oh...........and listeniing to music on a music player like fiio. I have windows 10 on my laptop and its a pain in the butt. Maybe because I am use to windows 7. Anyway, any help or suggestions welcome.
