Which version of MediaMonkey and what Mask are you using?

Can you show us the syntax you are using.

If I use

D:\$removeprefix(<Artist>)\<Artist> - <Album> - <Track#> - <Title>

for Artist=The Enid, it makes:

D:\Enid\The Enid - The Spell - 05 - Elephants Never Die.mp3

from artist: "The Enid", and it works.

Are you doing the same or something different?

Hi,
I also tested bit different mask and it also works.

Mask: D:\$removeprefix(<Artist>)\$removeprefix(<Artist>) - <Album> - <Track#> - <Title>
Result: D:\Enid\Enid - The Spell - 05 - Elephants Never Die.mp3

Sorry, unfortunately i need some more help
i'copied you're string and it seemed to work except for wich folder it goes

for example :Music\$removeprefix(<Albumartiest:1>)\$removeprefix(<Albumartiest>)\<Album>
returns this :Music\T\Vision Bleak \The Kindred of the Sunset (EP)
instead of folder V it goes to T

Use $Left($removeprefix(<Albumartiest>),1) instead
