Having trouble editing tags on .mp3 files

Just got a new laptop. Had itunes on the old one, and it read the file just fine. But now Groove music just displays 'unknown artist', etc, for a handful of files, and if I try to edit it , Groove gives an error saying it can't save the changes.
If I go directly to the file and try to edit the info on the detail tab in properties, it won't allow me to type in any of those fields.
I can edit the tag with a 3rd part tag editor---but Groove still won't see the tag.
I've already made sure the file isn't read only. And it's only a handful of files out of thousands, but it's driving me nuts that I can't figure out why I can't edit the properties on them.

Are you not able to install iTunes on your new computer? Some music programs can't read tag data based on the ID3 tag version. Try editing a songs tag data using MP3Tag, save the changes. Then open it in Groove. Does it show the data?
