Windows 10: Cover art overwritten by Music folder

Hello everyone, I've been using Windows Media Player very often in the past to add covers to some of the songs I enjoy that don't have them.Recently I've found a way to add high quality covers by using Mp3tag, since when adding covers via Windows Media Player the quality gets reduced heavily.Though very recently I've found a problem.My music folder is overwriting my covers with the covers they remember I previously used when doing things with Windows Media Player, the moment I take the audio file outside of the Music folder it returns back to using its cover that I added via editing the metada

Windows 10 Music Folder (cover art) image file missing - is there a fix please??

Cover Art folder disappears, when music file opened:

Others have posted re the image file not appearing within their individual music folders; is there a fix please?

Relevant file is normally called "folder.jpg".

As you can see on screenshot, the cover art image is showing on outside of folder as it were, but when you click that music file, the cover art image isn't listed, just the MP3 tracks.

If I then try to re add the file into the contents, system says file is already present if invisible in listing

of contents

Thanks
