Stop WMP 11 From Renaming My Files

[patetc]

I want to update my music files with album info and art but everytime I do this, WMP also renames my files. I have them the way I like and do not want them renamed in any way.

Under Retrieve Information frm the Internet I have checked "only add missing information". Is this all I need to make sure the files don't get changed?

That is the way I have mine. Nothing should get moved or renamed if all you have checked is that one box.

There's also an option 'Rename music files using rip music settings', make sure that is unchecked. I have WMP 10 so it might be a little different in 11.
