To establish they really are duplicates (and not different files) highlight each one (of a particular song) in turn... right-click and select 'Open File Location' - does it take you to the same folder each time - or somewhere different?

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!!!!!!
