After ripping a CD, WMP10 creates a folder under the artisit and specific
album. In some cases though not all tracks are included in the foleder and
WMP stores the track under unkown artist. If I try and move the track to the
correct folder after a few seconds the track is moved back to the folder
under unknown artist. Please help.

To avoid "Unknown Artist", the Album Artist field needs to be filled in.
This field is not displayed by default in the Rip Pane. See
http://msmvps.com/blogs/thinice/articles/15229.aspx for an explanation
of its use.


To stop it moving folders, the Library option to rearrange files needs
to be turned off (although I find that the checkbox state doesn't
accurately reflect what WMP actualy does with the files).
