Music file showing extension in Music Player

[Soyeb Mullick]

Hi everyone, last night I transferred two Music Files to my Music Folder through USB from my laptop as i always do since am using this Lumia 820, India. But after updating to Windows Phone 8.1 Dev Preview, newly transferred music files showing in the songs menu. How to fix this? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I think renaming the file might help. In the desktop in windows explorer click on view > options change folder and search option > view menu > show extension for known file types . Click ok. Now open the folder containg the music file. You will see the file has two .mp3 extension (for ex : Main kya karoon.mp3.mp3) delete the first .mp3 snd save. Now delete the previous file in your phone and transfer the edited file.

Well you can download the same song from another website. That might be a temporary fix. This can be a bug. So all you can do is wait until the official version of 8.1 is released.
