update metadata (tags) only

I want to update the tags only of each song, not rename the file itself. How do I do that?

By default files are not renamed. As long as you have Basic:Rename files based on metadata set to No SongKong will not rename any files.

If you are seeing files being renamed despite this preference being set to No I can only assume you are using iTunes. on OSX iTunes is configured by default to Keep iTunes media folder organized in its Advanced:Preferences tab. This means it will rename and move files when its notices that metadata has been changed.

You’re right! it was set to something else, I just hadn’t noticed that particular setting even though I had looked at the options several times…

Thank you!
