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!!!!!!

    What I mean is have you started the restore process from Tools -Advanced - Restore Media Library - as detailed earlier? It will take a while as it sorts out volume levelling etc. Everything in your music (and video  if applicable) folders should reappear over time... just leave it to get on with it.

    Nothing is saying restore  in process.  All i see at bottom is blue arrow at bottom saying volume leveling.

    Ok......i did what you asked.  Now what?  The bottom of screen in music file says "volume leveling:c:, janet, music, then one of my music files".  Is this right?

    If you don't want to use WMP for pics just remove all of those - as I said you won't lose any files - it just stops WMP loading stuff unnecessarily. People tend to move pics around in their folders too so that corrupts the library. MS really complicated this library management!
