  1. How to change details about a file?


    So I have a folder of files of songs and I want to change the file "title" not the name. When I go into properties, it really doesn't give me that option to change them, only remove and I have over 1600. This is for my boss and I'm at a complete loss as to what to do because we can't change our station's files over without them. THANK YOU!

    :)
