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!!!!!!

    Ok.......when it ripped the cd, wmp created another file "love songs(E:)"     no quotation marks on folder/file.  I right click a song to see if i could delete and no option to delete......next?

    Does the computer have a physical drive E:, or is it a virtual drive created by Win 7 or WMP?

    Is "Love Songs" possibly the name of the CD or the Album?

    Are you trying to Delete from the List Pane or the Details Pane?

    We'll check to see where they're stored in a minute.... next rip a CD to the library (any will do) and when it has ripped see if you can delete individual tracks and then the whole album (as would normally be possible)
