I have many files that WMP tagged with it's PRIV tags.
I have tried several ways to remove these tags with no luck.
I want to leave all other tags formatted as ID3 V2.3, No V1 tags. I especially do not want to lose the replaygain tags from foobar.

Here are the fields I'd like to remove:
WM/MediaClassPrimaryID
WM/MediaClassSecondaryID
WM/WMContentID
WM/UniqueFileIdentifier
WM/WMCollectionID
WM/WMCollectionGroupID
WM/Provider

Please send me a couple of those files and I'll think of something.

Go to the Tag/ID3 options and uncheck 'Try to preserve All ID3v2 frames'
This will save only the fields the program will display on the full tag edit dialog, replay gain information is stored on user defined fields so it will be saved.
