Computers are currently used for a lot of things since over time the functions have been extended and the use that users give it as well. There is no doubt that one of the activities that most of us do when we are in front of the PC screen or even behind is to listen to music . We can do this through applications such as Spotify or YouTube or directly from our player thanks to the songs we have downloaded..
The advantage of having songs downloaded to the computer is that we will not need to connect to the network to listen to each of them or have to look for it since we can do it directly from our player.
Each multimedia element used in Windows 10 includes within its content specific data about it. This is known as metadata that in the case of audio elements, songs, metadata give us information about:
- Name of the group or artist
- Album where this song is located and more.
When we download or buy these songs on the web, this information may be incorrect or outdated and therefore in TechnoWikis we will see today how to update it simply..
