Using Studio One 3.5.0.43196 Win x64, Windows 10 Operating system.  

There is no detailed information (Artist, Title, Year, Genre) in the details tab when viewing the file properties in windows.  Even though this information was entered in the "Meta Information" tab in Studio One before the mixdown.  Why is this?

Hi,

It appears to be the case that the metadata you're looking for either isn't written on *wav exports as they are with MP3 or isn't written in any standard way (if there is a standard).  This may be a feature request, if the *.wav format can support that metadata.
