You can automatically organize your tracks into albums by artist using built-in tools. Look for options in your music app or software that let you batch move files based on artist, which will create new folders for each artist. This way, handling thousands of tracks becomes much faster.
MP3Tag handles this task effectively. You can find more details at https://www.mp3tag.de/en/. It’s useful for bulk tagging and organizing files into directories. Choose your music folder, highlight everything with Ctrl + A, then click convert and select Tag - Filename. Enter the format like %artist% %album% %title% in the prompt, and click OK. Remember, backslashes matter—they ensure hyphens are placed correctly without renaming files.
I'm testing something and I have a lot of unfamiliar music, so I hope it gets tagged properly.
Additionally, you noted they’re already organized by artist. I just selected all folders using Ctrl + A and moved them into the program. The system is currently scanning the directory.
